Anna Karenina - LimpidSoft

PART TWO CHAPTER 14
“Yes, my boy, there is! There, do you see, you know the type of Ossian’s women....
Women, such as one sees in dreams.... Well, these women are sometimes to be met
in reality...and these women are terrible. Woman, don’t you know, is such a subject
that however much you study it, it’s always perfectly new.”
“Well, then, it would be better not to study it.”
“No. Some mathematician has said that enjoyment lies in the search for truth, not
in the finding it.”
Levin listened in silence, and in spite of all the efforts he made, he could not in
the least enter into the feelings of his friend and understand his sentiments and the
charm of studying such women.
