Alain de Botton
“Cynics are merely idealists with unusually high standards.”
Alain de Botton, The Course of Love

Alain de Botton
“The most attractive are not those who allow us to kiss them at once (we soon feel ungrateful) or those who never allow us to kiss them (we soon forget them), but those who know how to carefully administer varied doses of hope and despair.”
Alain de Botton , On Love

Alain de Botton
“In reading, friendship is suddenly brought back to its original purity. There is no false amiability with books. If we spend the evening with these friends, it is because we genuinely want to.”
Alain de Botton, How Proust Can Change Your Life

Alain de Botton
“As Proust once said, classically beautiful women should be left to men without imagination.”
Alain de Botton, Essays In Love

Alain de Botton
“The only people who can still strike us as normal are those we don’t yet know very well. The best cure for love is to get to know them better.”
Alain de Botton, The Course of Love
