La chiarezza totale dell'intelligenza – non pare, ma è cosi – trova spesso sul suo cammino questo impedimento che può sbarrare la strada alla verità, perché spesso si traveste nelle maniere più inaspettate e può venire perfino alimentato da un compiacimento nascosto della malinconia e del dolore».”
