‘I trust her because I love... «The Luminaries»
innashpitzberg4 января 2016‘I trust her because I love her,’ said Staines. ‘And how did you come to love her?’ ‘By trusting her, of course!’ ‘You make a circular defence.’ ‘Yes,’ the boy cried, ‘because I must! True feeling is always circular—either circular, or paradoxical—simply because its cause and its expression are two halves of the very same thing! Love cannot be reduced to a catalogue of reasons why, and a catalogue of reasons cannot be put together into love. Any man who disagrees with me has never been in love—not truly.’
