Excerpt from Pages Choisies des Grands Écrivains: J. M. Guyau
Le livre ami, a dit Guyan, est comme un oeil ouvert que la mort même ne ferme pas, et où se faittoujours visible, en un rayon de lumière, la pensée la plus pro fonde d'un être humain. Nous voudrions que quelques unes de ses pages, choisies parmi les plus belles et les plus durables, parmi celles où il a mis le plus de son coeur, fussent pour tous ce livre ami dont il parle, cet oeil ouvert que la mort ne peut fermer. Guyan est d'ail leurs de ceux qu'on ne peut lire sans les aimer, parce qu'il a aimé lui - même toutes les grandes choses et leur a consacré sa vie entière.
