Dr. TH. PASCAL
Fred Rothwell translation
Translated by Fred Rothwell
"Were an Asiatic to ask me for a definition of Europe, I should be forced to answer him:—It is that part of the world which is haunted by the incredible delusion that man was created out of nothing, and that his present birth is his first entrance into life."—Schopenhauer.
(Parerga and Paralipomena, Vol. 2, Chap. 15)
