“Au contraire de l'Européen classique, le Négro-Africain ne se distingue pas de l'objet, il ne le tient pas à distance, il ne le regarde pas, il ne l'analyse pas. Il le touche, il le palpe, il le sent.”
"Contrary to the classic European, the Negro-African does not distinguish himself from the object, he does not keep it at a distance, he does not look at it, he does not analyze it. He touches it, he feels it, he smells it."
