Max JACOB. L.A.S., Paris April 8, 1936, to his "dear Julien"; 2 pages in-4 (holes in the binder). 

"You're putting me too high and making me dizzy. Thank you for loving me and I love you. I have sought Wisdom, I believe that it is found only in Jesus Christ. The understanding that comes from love is symbolized in the drop of water that is matter and the drop of blood that is spirit. The union of matter and spirit which is both charity and intelligence. You remember the spear that pierces the Sacred Heart - it is the centre of the spiritual world. Let us worship the Sacred Heart. Nothing will fill you with peace but the Holy Host: you must taste it. And where will Eros lead you? To sickness! to tragedy! to suicide! to despair. This is the age! And what is an old man in love? An old pig! who is laughed at. Age will also come for you ... We must go to the Spirit: "And where does the Spirit sell himself? in books? You know that it is not! We give it at Holy Communion and at Confession. Examine yourself! Confess yourself! Love your neighbor, love God"...
