Milan Kundera
“The Greek word for "return" is nostos. Algos means "suffering." So nostalgia is the suffering caused by an unappeased yearning to return.”
Milan Kundera, Ignorance

Milan Kundera
“Physical love is unthinkable without violence.”
Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being

Milan Kundera
“There is a secret bond between slowness and memory, between speed and forgetting.

A man is walking down the street. At a certain moment, he tries to recall something, but the recollection escapes him. Automatically, he slows down.

Meanwhile, a person who wants to forget a disagreeable incident he has just lived through starts unconsciously to speed up his pace, as if he were trying to distance himself from a thing still too close to him in time.

In existential mathematics that experience takes the form of two basic equations: The degree of slowness is directly proportional to the intensity of memory; the degree of speed is directly proportional to the intensity of forgetting.”
Milan Kundera, Slowness

أروى صالح
“خصوصية المأساة عند جيل خاض تجربة التمرد ، هى أنه مهما كان مصير كل واحد من أبنائه ، سواء سار فى سكة السلامة ، طريق التوبة و الإذعان لقوة الأمر الواقع ، و حتى إعلان الكفر بكل قيم التمرد القديم ، أو سار فى طريق الندامة ، الإنهيار ، إعتزال الحياة ، المرض النفسى ، فإنه شاء أم أبى لا يعود أبداً نفس الشخص الذى قبل أن تبتليه غواية التمرد ، لقد مسه الحلم مرة ، و ستبقى تلاحقه دوماً ذكرى الخطيئة الجميلة ، لحظة حرية ، خفة ، لا تكاد تحتمل لفرط جمالها ، تبقى مؤرقة كالضمير ، و ملهمة ككل لحظة مفعمة بالحياة ،و الفاعلية مؤلمة”
أروى صالح

Milan Kundera
“Remembering our past, carrying it around with us always, may be the necessary requirement for maintaining, as they say, the wholeness of the self. To ensure that the self doesn’t shrink, to see that it holds on to its volume, memories have to be watered like potted flowers, and the watering calls for regular contact with the witnesses of the past, that is to say, with friends. They are our mirror; our memory; we ask nothing of them but that they polish the mirror from time to time so we can look at ourselves in it.”
Milan Kundera, Identity
