“Paris was a universe whole and entire unto herself, hollowed and fashioned by history; so she seemed . . . with her towering buildings, her massive cathedrals, her grand boulevards and ancient, winding medieval streets— as vast and indestructible as nature itself. All was embraced by her, by her volatile and enchanted populace thronging to the galleries, the theaters, the cafes, giving birth over and over to genius and sanctity, philosophy and war, frivolity and the finest art; so it seemed that if all the world outside her were to sink into darkness, what was fine, what was beautiful, what was essential might there still come to its finest flower.”
