“Je ne vois pas pourquoi l'amour entre une mère et un fils ne serait pas exactement comme les autres amours. Pourquoi on ne pourrait pas cesser de s'aimer. Pourquoi on ne pourrait pas rompre. Je ne vois pas pourquoi on ne pourrait pas s'en foutre, une fois pour toutes, de l'amour, de l'amour prétendu, de toutes les formes d'amour, même de celui-là, pourquoi il faudrait absolument qu'on s'aime, dans les familles et ailleurs, qu'on se le raconte sans cesse, les uns aux autres ou à soi-même. Je me demande qui a inventé ça, de quand ça date, si c'est une mode, une névrose, un toc, du délire, quels sont les intérêts économiques, les ressorts politiques. Je me demande ce qu'on nous cache, ce qu'on veut de nous avec cette grande histoire de l'amour. Je regarde les autres et je ne vois que des mensonges et je ne vois que des fous. Quand est-ce qu'on arrête avec l'amour ? Pourquoi on ne pourrait pas ? Il faudrait que je sache. Je me pose la question.”
Constance Debré, Love Me Tender

“It's nice to have someone around who loves me. I've thought about it. There aren't that many different solutions.”
Constance Debré, Love Me Tender

“When I’m tired of living where I live, I leave. It’s simple. I could easily live without an apartment just as I could easily live without a mistress. Life is a series of entrances and exits. I think that’s what I mean by events. Entrances and exits. That’s always interested me. In order for an entrance or an exit to happen, in order for it to be fluid, you have to stay light at your core. No agenda. No possessions. No opinions either, or not too many of them. To have as light a core as possible. Or even no core at all. My life is very simple now. That it all became possible through homosexuality doesn’t have to distract us. No muss no fuss. The system doesn’t allow for it.”
Constance Debré, Nom
