“If I could only make others feel as I do all the terrors and splendors of the night; if I could but make them hear the songs, the silences and murmurings of the air: one must feel the presence of the infinite . . . ”

Undated letter from Millet to Alfred Sensier, cited in Julia Cartwright, Jean-François Millet : His Life and Letters , September 1896
