“I lean over you, your equal, offering you a mirror for your perfect nothingness, for your shadows which are neither light nor absence of light, for this void which contemplates.

You become a delicious passivity.”
― Maurice Blanchot, Thomas the Obscure

“Man is always prey to his truths. Once he has admitted them, he cannot free himself from them.”
