"I am not one who was born in the custody of wisdom. I am one who is fond of olden times and intense in quest of the sacred knowing of the ancients." Gustave Courbet

Escape.


A journal takes the place of a confidant, that is, of friend or wife; it becomes a substitute for production, a substitute for country and public. 


It is a grief-cheating device, a mode of escape and withdrawal; but, factotum as it is, though it takes the place of everything, properly speaking it represents nothing at all.

Henri-Frédéric Amiel
