I looked at the people beside me, and all at once by contrast I saw a spectacle completely unknown. It was fantastic. The unknown was the reality all around me, and no longer what was happening on the screen!

When I came out onto the Boulevard Montparnasse, it was as if I'd never seen it before, a complete transformation of reality, marvelous, totally strange, and the boulevard had the beauty of the Arabian Nights.

Everything was different, space and objects and colors and the silence, because the sense of space generates silence, bathes objects in silence.
