Octave Mirbeau
“Et je songeai, non sans irritation, qu'on ne peut faire un pas, de l'équateur au pôle, sans se heurter à cette face louche, à ces yeux rapaces, à ces mains crochues, à cette bouche immonde qui, sur les divinités charmantes et les mythes adorables des religions-enfants, va soufflant, avec l'odeur du gin cuvé, l'effroi des versets de la Bible.”
Octave Mirbeau, Le Jardin Des Supplices

James Baldwin
“Well," I said, feeling myself being led by Giovanni into deep and dangerous water, "I guess people wait in order to be sure of what they feel."
"In order to make sure!" He turned again to that invisible ally and laughed again. I was beginning, perhaps, to find his phantom a little unnerving but the sound of his laughter in that airless tunnel was the most incredible sound. "It's clear that you are a true philosopher." He pointed a finger at my heart. "And when you have waited - has it made you sure?”
James Baldwin, Giovanni's Room

“Tu déconstruiras pas deux mille ans de patriarcat en trois Despentes et six margaritas.”
Alex Tamécylia, Les féministes t’encouragent à quitter ton mari, tuer tes enfants, pratiquer la sorcellerie, détruire le capitalisme et devenir trans-pédé-gouine

Elsa Triolet
“Même le passé nous échappe, on dirait que la mémoire déborde, qu'il n'y a plus de place pour tous les souvenirs, on les perd en route. C'est long une vie ... Heureusement que tout a une fin.”
Elsa Triolet, Le cheval blanc

James Baldwin
“He had some weird idea that it would be nice to have a bookcase sunk in the wall and he chipped through the wall until he came to the brick and began pounding away at the brick. It was hard work, it was insane work, but I did not have the energy or the heart to stop him. In a way he was doing it for me, to prove his love for me. He wanted me to stay in the room with him. Perhaps he was trying, with his own strength, to push back the encroaching walls, without, however, having the walls fall down.”
James Baldwin, Giovanni's Room
