If I love order, it's not the mark of a character subjected
to an inner discipline, a repression of the instincts. In me the idea of an
absolutely regular world, symmetrical and methodical, is associated with that
first impulse and burgeoning of nature. The rest of your images that associate passion with disorder, love with
intemperate overflow -- river fire whirlpool volcano -- are for me memories of
nothingness and listlessness and boredom.
