"As, pricked out with less and greater lights, between the poles of the universe, the Milky Way so gleameth white as to set very sages questioning."

Previous Quote

Very often, gleams of light come in a few minutes' sleeplessness, in a second perhaps; you must fix them. To entrust them to the relaxed brain is like writing on water; there is every chance that on the morrow there will be no slightest trace left of any happening.
