Freely Translated Quotes

“Nostalgia is not an aesthetic feeling, it is not even linked to the feeling of happiness, you are nostalgic for a place simply because you have lived there, good or bad, it doesn't matter, the past is always beautiful, and the future too, only the present hurts, which you carry with you like an abscess of suffering that accompanies you between two infinities of peaceful happiness.”
― houellebecq, michel
