The apparent world, the one which is perceived, with its figures, its brightness, its colors, is a psychical product, a creation of the observer.

In what bold relief stand out the lives of all walkers of the snow! The snow is a great tell-tale, and blabs as effectually as it obliterates. I go into the woods, and know all that has happened.
