“Non seulement les lettres pures, mais aussi les utopies de la Renaissance, sa conception même du monde étaient profondément imprégnées de la perception du monde carnavalesque et en revêtaient souvent les formes et les symboles.”
― Mikhail Bakhtin, Rabelais and His World

“Clearly Hitler was not the representative of any single group or class but many groups at the same time. [...] He had no choice if he wanted to stay in power, for no group was so powerful that he could base his power on it alone”
― Eberhard Jäckel, Hitler in History

“Le doute méthodique est d'ordinaire le signe d'une bonne santé mentale : c'est pourquoi des soldats harassés, au coeur trouble ne pouvaient le pratiquer”
― Marc Bloch

“You don't write a novel out of sheer pity any more than you blow a safe out of a vague longing to be rich. A certain ruthlessness and a sense of alienation from society is as essential to creative writing as it is to armed robbery.”
― Nelson Algren, Nonconformity: Writing on Writing

tags: alienation, creative-writing, pity, robbery, ruthlessness, writing

“Early on, I learnt from the Russian intelligentsia that the only meaning of life lies in conscious participation in the making of history. The more I think of that, the more deeply true it seems to be. It follows that one must range oneself actively against everything that diminishes man, and involve oneself in all struggles which tend to liberate and enlarge him. This categorical imperative is by no way lessened by the fact that such an involvement is inevitably soiled by error: it is a worse error merely to live for oneself, caught within traditions which are soiled by inhumanity.”
― Victor Serge, Memoirs of a Revolutionary
