"Si je regarde le monde extérieur en me débarrassant de tout ce que j'ai appris sur lui et compris de lui, en laissant de côté ce qu'il a pour moi d'utilisable et d'intelligible, je suis plus libre pour voir, je n'élimine rien, je suis pareil à Robinson débarquant sur son île et pour qui tout est merveilleusement nouveau..."
