Excerpt from 'Regarde au loin' (Looks away) translated with Google.
"In melancholy I have one thing to say: "Look away". Almost always the melancholy is a man who reads too much. The human eye is not made to this distance; it's the great outdoors that rests. When you look at the stars or the horizon of the sea, your eye is completely relaxed; if the eye is relaxed, the mind is free, walking is more assured;
.......
But do not you try to relax by will;
.......
do not think of you; looks away.
.......
It is therefore whether perception and travel. An object, the true relations that you discover it, leads you to another and a thousand others, and this vortex of the river carries your thoughts to the winds, to the clouds, and even planets.
.......
Where your mind will rest in this universe which is his domain, and matches with the lives of your body that is also related to all things.
Looks away."
