explanation
"And in this connexion we may wonder whether, in the case of love... we shouldn't act like those who, when a noise disturbs them, instead of praying that it may cease, stop their ears; and, in emulation of them, bring our attention, our defences, to bear on ourselves, give them as an object to subdue not the external being whom we love, but our capacity for suffering through that being."
Marcel Proust, In Search of Lost Time
