"Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own."

Robert H. Heinlein

"It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you're not."

Andre Gide

I always dream of a pen that would be a syringe, a suction point rather than that very hard weapon with which one must inscribe, incise, choose, calculate, take ink before filtering the inscribable, playing the keyboard on the screen, whereas here, once the vein has been found, no more toil, no responsibility, no risk of bad taste or violence, the blood delivers itself all alone, the inside gives itself up and you can do as you like with it, it's me but I'm no longer there, for nothing, for nobody, diagnose the worst...

Jacques Derrida

"All excellent things are as difficult as they are rare."

Spinoza

'There is no point in having sharp images when you've got fuzzy ideas'

Godard
