"J'ai adoré ma mère, je ne l'ai pas aimée. De son côté, j'étais pour elle l'enfant des bois, le fruit d'une volupté inouïe : ce fruit, elle l'avait nourri dans sa dévotion enfantine, retour de la folle tendresse, angoissée et gaie, qu'elle me donnait, rarement, mais qui m'éblouissait. J'étais né de l'éblouissement de ses jeux d'enfant, et je crois qu'elle n'aima jamais un homme. [...] elle n'eut dans sa vie qu'un violent désir, celui de m'éblouir et de me perdre dans le scandale où elle se voulait perdue."
