Love stories have so overworked the power of love’s gaze, that finally people agreed to discount it. We hardly dare, nowadays, to admit that two human beings loved one another because they looked at one another. Yet — love dawns thus, and only thus. The rest — comes afterwards. Nothing is more true, more real, that the primeval magnetic disturbances that two souls may communicate to one another, through the tiny sparks of a moment’s glance.
Victor Hugo
