Milan Kundera
“Before we are forgotten, we will be turned into kitsch. Kitsch is the stopover between being and oblivion.”
Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being

Christian Wiman
“Art is so often better at theology than theology is.”
Christian Wiman, My Bright Abyss: Meditation of a Modern Believer
tags: art

Milan Kundera
“To rebel against being born a woman seemed as foolish to her as to take pride in it.”
Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being

Gabriel García Márquez
“He allowed himself to be swayed by his conviction that human beings are not born once and for all on the day their mothers give birth to them, but that life obliges them over and over again to give birth to themselves.”
Gabriel García Márquez, Love in the Time of Cholera

Milan Kundera
“The moment someone keeps an eye on what we do, we involuntarily make allowances for that eye, and nothing we do is truthful. Having a public, keeping a public in mind, means living in lies…”
Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being
