Laurent Gounelle
“Les êtres humains sont très attachés à tout ce qu'ils
croient. Ils ne cherchent pas la vérité, ils veulent seulement une
certaine forme d'équilibre, et ils arrivent à se bâtir un monde à peu
près cohérent sur la base de leurs croyances. Cela les rassure, et ils
s'y accrochent inconsciemment”
Laurent Gounelle, L'homme qui voulait être heureux

Ralph Waldo Emerson
“I cannot remember the books I've read any more than the meals I have eaten; even so, they have made me.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Milan Kundera
“We can never know what to want, because, living only one life, we can neither compare it with our previous lives nor perfect it in our lives to come.”
Milan Kundera

Gustave Flaubert
“Do not read as children do to enjoy themselves, or, as the ambitious do to educate themselves. No, read to live.”
Gustave Flaubert

Roberto Bolaño
“Reading is like thinking, like praying, like talking to a friend, like expressing your ideas, like listening to other people's ideas, like listening to music, like looking at the view, like taking a walk on the beach.”
Roberto Bolaño, 2666
