Excerpt from Portraits du Xixe Si�cle, Vol. 1: Po�tes Et Romanciers
Christ. Ce n'est pas un Fran�ais, ce n'est m�me pas un Latin c'est un Grec. C'est un contemporain de Phidias �gar� parmi nous, et ses yeux, qui n'ont jamais regard� des �glises, �taient na�vement occup�s � chercher des temples. On n'a jamais si parfaitement v�cu en.dehors de son temps et de sa race; on ne s'est jamais ext�rio rise � ce point. C'est la merveille de cette vie et le ca ract�re de ce g�nie.
