“Much more likely you’ll hurt me. Still what does it matter? If I’ve got to suffer, it may as well be at your hands, your pretty hands.”
― Jean-Paul Sarte, No Exit

“Never sell the bear's skin before one has killed the beast.”

“It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

“Père, maîtresse, honneur, amour,
noble et dure contrainte, aimable tyrannie,
tous mes plaisirs sons morts, ou ma gloire ternie.
L'un me rend malhereux, l'autre indigne du jour.
Cher et cruel espoir d'une âme généreuse,
mais ensemble amoureuse, digne ennemi de mon plus grand bonheur.
Fer qui causes ma peine,
M'es-tu donné pour venger mon honneur?
M'est-tu donné pour perdre ma Chimène?”
― Pierre Corneille, Le Cid
