You are keenly observant, but I also want to say that this is perhaps your error. Your life will amount to nothing but tentative efforts at living. You presumably will answer that this is always better than traveling on the train of triviality and atomistically losing oneself in life’s social hordes. To repeat, you cannot be said to hate marriage; as yet your thought has never actually gone that far, at least not without being scandalized by it. What you prefer is the first infatuation. You know how to sink down and hide in a dreaming, love-drunk clairvoyance. You love the accidental. A smile from a pretty girl in an interesting situation, a stolen glance, that is what you are hunting for, that is a motif for your aimless fantasy. You who always pride yourself on being an observateur must, in return, put up with becoming an object of observation.
