Tahar Ben Jelloun
“Pain, too, comes from depths that cannot be revealed. We do not know whether those depths are in ourselves or elsewhere, in a graveyard, in a scarcely dug grave, only recently inhabited by withered flesh. This truth, which is banal enough, unravels time and the face, holds up a mirror to me in which I cannot see myself without being overcome by a profound sadness that undermines one's whole being. The mirror has become the route through which my body reaches that state, in which it is crushed into the ground, digs a temporary grave, and allows itself to be drawn by the living roots that swarm beneath the stones. It is flattened beneath the weight of that immense sadness which few people have the privilege of knowing. So I avoid mirrors.”
Tahar Ben Jelloun, The Sand Child

“La foi n'est pas la peur. Le suicide n'est pas une solution. L'épreuve est un défi. La résistance est un devoir, pas une obligation. Garder sa dignité est un impératif absolu. C'est ça : la dignité, c'est ce qui me reste, ce qui nous reste. Chacun fait ce qu'il peut pour que sa dignité ne soit pas atteinte. Voilà ma mission. Rester debout, être un homme, jamais une loque, une serpillère, une erreur.”
Tahar Ben Jelloun, تلك العتمة الباهرة

“Comme l'ennui. Nous étions devenus des êtres d'ennui, des paquets bourrés d'ennui.L'ennui sentait l'odeur des cimetières quand la pierre est humide. Il tournait autour de nous, rongeait nos paupières, striait la peau et s'enfonçait dans le ventre”
Tahar Ben Jelloun

“L'âme humaine ne s'explique pas par la psychologie. Elle ne peut être expliquée, elle est à vivre.”
Tahar Ben Jelloun

Tahar Ben Jelloun
“I have at least the whole of my life to answer a question: Who am I? And who is the other? A gust of wind at dawn? A motionless landscape? A trembling leaf? A coil of white smoke above a mountain? I write all these words and I hear the wind, not outside, but inside my head. A strong wind, it rattles the shutters through which I enter the dream.”
Tahar Ben Jelloun, The Sand Child
