“When it's over, I want to say: all my life
I was a bride married to amazement.
I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms.

When it is over, I don't want to wonder
if I have made of my life something particular, and real.
I don't want to find myself sighing and frightened,
or full of argument.

I don't want to end up simply having visited this world.”
― Mary Oliver

“Je devais un jour opter pour la littérature, qui me paraissait le dernier refuge, sur cette terre, de tous ceux qui ne savent pas où se fourrer.”
― Romain Gary, Promise at Dawn
