Quote by Georges Bataille

“Nothing human necessitates a community of those desiring humanness. Anything taking us down that road will require combined efforts — or at least continuity from one person to the next — not limiting ourselves to the possibilities of a single person. To cut my ties with what surrounds me makes this solitude of mine a mistake. A life is only a link in the chain. I want other people to continue the experience begun by those before me and dedicate themselves like me and the others before me to this — to go to the furthest reaches of the possible.”
