“Why should an intellectual have to renounce the pleasures of life? I am not a hermit. I am a man of flesh and blood. In fact, if you look at my name in French, that schizophrenia, that aspiration to several lives is contained in my name. Lévy is also les vies - "the lives".” MenPleasureIntellectualAspirationSchizophrenia Author:Bernard-Henri Levy
“People always think that loyalty is laudable. People are always saying that we must remain faithful to tradition, to family, to our class, to our ideas. Of course not! That would be equivalent to zero brain activity. If you really want to think, to seek truth, to advance intellectually, you must turn your back on clichés, on preconceived ideas - even those belonging to your spiritual family. For an intellectual, his true duty is not to fidelity, but to infidelity.” PeopleThinkingSpiritualBrainDutyIntellectualTraditionLoyaltyFaithfulBelongingInfidelityFidelity Author:Bernard-Henri Levy
