Denis Diderot
“This is how I spend my time. A eight o'clock, dark or light, I get up. I have my two cups of tea. Fair weather or foul, I open my window and take the air. Then I shut myself up and read...Those writers who can charm away our boredom, who ravish us from ourselves, whom nature has endowed with a magic wand which no sooner touches us than we forget our troubles and the light enters the dark places of the soul and we are reconciled to living - they are the only true benefactors of humanity.”
Denis Diderot, Lettres à Sophie Volland

“All this buttoning and unbuttoning”

Barry Lopez
“You can sit for a long time with the history of man like a stone in your hand. The stillness, the pure light, encourage it.”
Barry Lopez, Arctic Dreams

Edward O. Wilson
“The real problem of humanity is the following: We have Paleolithic emotions, medieval institutions and godlike technology. And it is terrifically dangerous, and it is now approaching a point of crisis overall.”
Edward O. Wilson

Jean-Luc Godard
“I always feel that a man and a woman, who do not like the same films, will eventually divorce.”
Jean-Luc Godard
