Charles DARWIN. Cross writing (technique used for saving paper), 1828

My dear Fox  

I am dying by inches, from not having any body to talk to about insects: — my only reason for writing, is to remove a heavy weight from my mind, so now you must understand, what you will perceive before you come to the end of this; that I am writing merely for my own pleasure & not your’s. — I have been very idle since I left Cambridge in every possible way & amongst the rest in Entomology.

Beauty is unbearable, drives us to despair, offering us for a minute the glimpse of an eternity that we should like to stretch out over the whole of time. Albert Camus
