“Le seul fait de rêver est déjà très important,

Je vous souhaite des rêves à n’en plus finir,

Et l’envie furieuse d’en réaliser quelques- uns,

Je vous souhaite d’aimer ce qu’il faut aimer,

Je vous souhaite d’oublier ce qu’il faut oublier,

Je vous souhaite des chants d’oiseaux au réveil,

Je vous souhaite des rires d’enfants,

Je vous souhaite des silences,

Je vous souhaite de résister à l’enlisement,

À l’indifférence, aux vertus négatives de notre époque.

Je vous souhaite surtout d’être vous.”
― Jacques Brel
