Guy de Maupassant, Bel-Ami

Everything I see reminds me that in a few days I shall no longer see it… It’s horrible… I shall see nothing more… nothing of what exists… the smallest objects that we use… glasses… plates… beds where people sleep so comfortably… carriages. It’s so lovely, going out in a carriage, in the evening… How much I enjoyed all that!
