问题 Miro, A Just Man
Miro was goodness, a just man in all things. He did not speak much but was very courteous. I never saw him with a camera or a ballpoint pen, but he would sometimes spend an hour contemplating the landscape. He and I were alone. I prudently kept my distance. He liked places that were difficult to get to, with a good view.

Bernini on Women
