He who know nothing, love nothing. He who can
do nothing understands nothing. He who under-
stands nothing is worthless. But, he who under-
stands also loves, notices, sees... The more knowledge
is inherent in a thing, the greater the love... Any-
one who imagines that all fruit ripens at the same time
as the strawberries knows nothing about the grape.
