Alain de Botton
“Perhaps it is true that we do not really exist until there is someone there to see us existing, we cannot properly speak until there is someone who can understand what we are saying in essence, we are not wholly alive until we are loved.”
Alain de Botton, On Love

Marcel Proust
“Love is a striking example of how little reality means to us.”
Marcel Proust, In Search of Lost Time
tags: love

Ingmar Bergman
“When you feel perpetually unmotivated, you start questioning your existence in an unhealthy way; everything becomes a pseudo intellectual question you have no interest in responding whatsoever. This whole process becomes your very skin and it does not merely affect you; it actually defines you. So, you see yourself as a shadowy figure unworthy of developing interest, unworthy of wondering about the world - profoundly unworthy in every sense and deeply absent in your very presence.”
Ingmar Bergman

Alain de Botton
“One kind of good book should leave you asking: how did the author know that about me?”
Alain de Botton
