Brief von Gustave Flaubert an Madame Jules Sandeau.
"Je suis en ce moment un peu troublé par l'idée d'un voyage en Chine. Il me serait facile de partir avec l'expédition française. Et je ne vous cache pas que je lâcherais très bien mon travail et mes travaux pour m'en aller au pays des paravents et du nankin, si je n'avais une mère qui commence à devenir vieille, et que ce départ achèverait. Voilà la seconde fois que je rate la Chine !" |

Thoreau, Henry David. Journal (1859).
Zig zagging with them like the wall of china. It winds along the irregular lines of tussocks like the wall of China over hill & dale. You wonder how the world looks to them – if those are eyes which they have got or bits of old china – familiar with soap-suds. … often this distance & this strangeness between us & our nearest neighbors - They are our Austrias & Chinas - & South Sea Islands. They looked like 2 old-fashioned china saucers. But as for the meaning of the sentence – that is as completely over-locked as if it had none. This is the Chinese – the Aristot(e)lean Method. We become aware of as there are many versts between us & them as between a wandering Tartar of a Chinese or American Town. |

Thoreau, Henry David. A plea for Captain John Brown [ID D29693].
We dream of foreign countries, of other times and races of men, placing them at a distance in history of space ; but let some significant event like the present occur in our midst, and we discover, often, this distance and this strangeness between us and our nearest neighbors. They are our Austrias, and Chinas, and South Sea Islands. Our crowded society becomes well spaced all at once, clean and handsome to the eye, - a city of magnificent distances. We discover why it was that we never got beyond compliments and surfaces with them before ; we become aware of as many versts between us and them as there are between a wandering Tartar and a Chinese town. |
