The sight of anything extremely beautiful, in nature or in art, brings back the memory of what one loves, with the speed of lightning. That is,... all that is beautiful and sublime and the world takes part in the beauty of what one loves, and this unexpected glimpse of happiness immediately fills the eyes with tears. This is how love of the beautiful and love give each other life. - Stendhal
