The distance between sadness and joy, between good and bad fortune, seemed to be much greater than for us; every experience had that degree of directness and absoluteness which joy and sadness still have in the mind of a child”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)

“It is clear to everyone that astronomy at all events compels the soul to look upwards, and draws it from the things of this world to the other.”
