Lauren Groff
“this fresh-cut-grass smell was the olfactory scream of the plants.”
Lauren Groff, Fates and Furies

Hervé Guibert
“Muzil passa une matinée à l'hôpital pour faire des examens, il me raconta à quel point le corps, il l'avait oublié, lancé dans les circuits médicaux, perd toute identité, ne reste plus qu'un paquet de chair involontaire, brinquebalé par-ci par-là, à peine un matricule, un nom passé dans la moulinette administrative, exsangue de son histoire et de sa dignité.”
Hervé Guibert, À l'ami qui ne m'a pas sauvé la vie

Hervé Guibert
“maintenant qu'il connaissait cette douleur Muzil la craignait par-dessus tout, ça se lisait désormais dans son oeil la panique d'une souffrance qui n'est plus maîtrisée à l'intérieur du corps mais provoquée artificiellement par une intervention extérieure au foyer du mal sous prétexte de la juguler, il était lair que pour Muzil cette souffrance était plus abominable que sa souffrance intime, devenue familière”
Hervé Guibert, À l'ami qui ne m'a pas sauvé la vie

Sylvia Plath
“The sight of all the food stacked in those kitchens made me dizzy. It's not that we hadn't enough to eat at home, it's just that my grandmother always cooked economy joints and economy meat loafs and had the habit of saying, the minute you lifted the first forkful to your mouth, "I hope you enjoy that, it cost forty-one cents a pound," which always made me feel I was somehow eating pennies instead of Sunday roast.”
Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

Sylvia Plath
“The only trouble was, Church, even the Catholic Church, didn't take up the whole of your life. No matter how much you knelt and prayed, you still had to eat three meals a day and have a job and live in the world.”
Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar
