Eva Baltasar
“Healthy things kill you much more slowly. They begin by convincing you of their love and making you bow to their withering intensity.”
Eva Baltasar, Permagel

Gaël Faye
“Je n’habite plus nulle part. Habiter signifie se fondre charnellement dans la topographie d’un lieu, l’anfractuosité de l’environnement. Ici, rien de tout ça. Je ne fais que passer.”
Gaël Faye, Petit pays

Eva Baltasar
“I realize that I am smoke, that the things that define me rise as they would up a chimney, probing every crack, searching for a wellspring of light or cold... I don't mean my personality. Personality is a dress made of scraps that I never stop washing or mending; it clothes me, might even suit me, but it will never, ever define me. The nakedness I conceal is what makes me a person.”
Eva Baltasar, Boulder

Colette
“Tu dors ? non. Si j’approchais ma joue de la tienne, je sentirais tes cils frémir comme l’aile d’une mouche captive... Tu ne dors pas. Tu épies ma fièvre. Tu m’abrites contre les mauvais songes ; tu penses à moi comme je pense à toi, et nous feignons, par une étrange pudeur sentimentale, un paisible sommeil. Tout mon corps s’abandonne, détendu, et ma nuque pèse sur ta douce épaule…”
Colette, Les Vrilles De La Vigne

Vita Sackville-West
“But, perversely, the flittering of the butterflies had always remained more important.”
Vita Sackville-West, All Passion Spent
