Aldous Huxley
“The problems raised by alcohol and tobacco cannot, it goes without saying, be solved by prohibition. The universal and ever-present urge to self-transcendence is not to be abolished by slamming the currently popular Doors in the Wall. The only reasonable policy is to open other, better doors in the hope of inducing men and women to exchange their old bad habits for new and less harmful ones.”
Aldous Huxley, The Doors of Perception & Heaven and Hell

“Quand les premiers tirs retentirent, la tête d’un gars explosa à un mètre de mon visage. Mon corps se pétrifia : je n’étais plus qu’une sculpture attendant qu’on la vandalise.
Roy me projeta au sol avant de me gifler :
— Réveille-toi, gamin !
Les sans-visage tombaient comme des mouches. Des membres survolaient mon corps allongé, contrastant avec le ciel estival qui semblait se moquer de l’événement.”
Christian Ganozzi, A PASTOR'S STORY (Ce qu'il reste)
