Quote by Jean d'Ormesson

“Poți oare să te sustragi timpului tău? Poți să fii superior sau inferior, poți să lupți împotriva lui cum încetasem noi să o facem: până la urmă el te prinde însă, și te înseamnă cu pecetea lui.”

“Timpul este cel mai bun medicament pentru a ne transforma rănile care sângerează în cicatrici, iar corpurile noastre ar putea uita trauma, ochii noștri ar putea învăța să vadă culorile așa cum ar trebui să fie văzute, dar acest leac nu se extinde la sufletul nostru. Nu este. Timpul nu ne iartă păcatele și nici nu readuce morții.”

“EVERYWHERE I TURNED, EVERYWHERE I went, everybody had something to say about love. Mothers, fathers, teachers, singers, musicians, poets, writers, friends. It was like the air. It was like the ocean. It was like the sun. It was like the leaves on a tree in summer. It was like the rain that broke the drought. It was the soft sound of the water flowing through a stream. And it was the sound of the crashing waves against the shore in a storm. Love was why we fought all our battles. Love was what we lived and died for. Love was what we dreamed of as we slept. Love was the air we wanted to breathe in when we woke to greet the day. Love was a torch you carried to lead you out of darkness. Love took you out of exile and carried you to a country called Belonging.”
