Quotes by Martin Michael Driessen (?)

“Wie kent zichzelf? Ik niet. Ooit dacht ik dat ik mezelf kende, maar in feite was ik alleen verleid door de verlokking van het feit dat ik bestond. Elk middel om dat steeds opnieuw te ervaren kwam me te pas, en als ik een ander was geweest had ik andere dingen gedaan om datzelfde gevoel te ondervinden. Zelfs de vreugdeloze filosoof Descartes dacht dat hij was.”
― Martin Michael Driessen, De heilige
