Romain Rolland Quote

"There are some dead who are more alive than the living."
"No, no! It would be more true to say that there are some who are more dead than the dead."
"Maybe. In any case there are old things which are still young."
"Then if they are still young we can find them for ourselves.... But I don't believe it. What has been good once never is good again."


Jean-Christophe: Revolt (1905), p. 395 - Jean-Christophe (1904 - 1912)


There are some dead who are more alive than the living. No, no! It would be more true to say that there are some who are more dead than the dead....

There are some dead who are more alive than the living. No, no! It would be more true to say that there are some who are more dead than the dead....

There are some dead who are more alive than the living. No, no! It would be more true to say that there are some who are more dead than the dead....

There are some dead who are more alive than the living. No, no! It would be more true to say that there are some who are more dead than the dead....
