| | 1 | Author: | Field, Eugene | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | The Love Affairs of a Bibliomaniac  | | | | Published: | 1995 | | | | Subjects: | University of Virginia Library, Text collection | UVA-LIB-Text | | | | Description: | AT this moment, when I am about to
begin the most important undertaking
of my life, I recall the sense of abhorrence
with which I have at different times
read the confessions of men famed for
their prowess in the realm of love. These
boastings have always shocked me, for I
reverence love as the noblest of the
passions, and it is impossible for me to conceive
how one who has truly fallen victim to its
benign influence can ever thereafter speak
flippantly of it. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
