Factis Quotes

[Concerning the love La Fontaine felt for animals] He follows their emotions, he represents their reasonings, he becomes tender, he becomes gay, he participates in their feelings. The factis, he lived in them. [...] The animals contain all the materials of man-sensations, judgments, images. (Hippolyte Taine)
Nam nec historia debet egredi veritatem, et honeste factis veritas sufficit. View quote
Pliny the Younger
