Quote by Erich Maria Remarque

“-În tinerețe susțineam că bărbatul nu este în stare să iubească.Mi-am retractat apoi spusele.Trebuie să te înalți de la iubirea pur fizică la cea sufletească.Mulți confundă euforia simțurilor cu iubirea.Iubirea este în primul rând sufletească, psihică.Asta nu înseamnă că trebuie neapărat să rămână platonică, palidă, neîmplinită.Totuși, armonia fizică trebuie să fie o intensificare sau declanșare a contactului sufletesc.”

“I had never touched this particular knob before and shall never find it again. This moment of conscious contact holds a drop of solace. The emergency brake of time.

In the course of our, let me see, twelve, twelve and three months of life together, I ought to have immobilized by this simple method millions of moments; paying perhaps terrific fines, but stopping the train. Say why did you do it? the popeyed conductor might ask. Because I liked the view. Because I wanted to stop these speedy trees and the path twisting between them. By stepping on it's receding tail. What happened to her would perhaps not have happened, had I been in the habit of stopping this or that bit of our common life, prophylactically, prophetically, letting this or that moment rest and breath in peace. Taming time. Giving her pulse respite. Pampering life, life - our patient.”
