There is something sinister something quite biographical about what I do - but that part is for me. It's my personal business. I think there is a lot of romance melancholy. There's a sadness to it but there's romance in sadness. I suppose I am a very melancholy person.

Do not make best friends with a melancholy sad soul. They always are heavily loaded and you must bear half.

I can barely conceive of a type of beauty in which there is no Melancholy.
