Quotations

“Our lives are made major events which did not take place, they are the scum of these hopes without continuation. ”
“Oh! to enter the life of somebody of unknown! Challenge of the challenges, temptation of temptations, it does not have there a greater mystery. Perhaps the life is worth to be lived only by this radiant challenge that she proposes to us at certain moments. ”
“Humor, it is love; irony, it is mistaken. ”
“Secret or revealed by bits, each writer carries a book fundamental in him, invisible, never really written, of which all the books that it publishes are only the approximations or the clippings. ”
“We are all old spermatozoa which have turned out badly. ”
“If the proportion of holes exceeded 99%,

the Gruyere would be invisible. ”

“the man of humor is the absolute man. As much to say that it is the impossible man. He carries this impossibility like a splendid wound, ever closed again. We can be with him only what the philosophos is with the sophia , in the distance from the philein : us approaching some infinitely without never being able to reach it. ”
