Excerpt from The Metaphysics of Balzac: As Found in "the Magic Skin," "Louis Lambert," and "Seraphita"

All existence is interpretation. As living human beings we are interpreters of our own nature through experience of its possibilities. Confronted first by its depths, we are attracted to its heights through the drawing power of our ideals, a power that impels us upward, however strong the gravity of our sensuous nature. What is natural is succeeded by what is pos sible.
