When I want to be incognito, I don't wear any hat. Unfortunately, even without the hat, they now recognise me in Paris.
Amelie NothombI've noticed it a lot. I'm not someone who revises. It's always the first movement, it's that. It's an instinct. Either it works straight away, or it won't ever work.
Amelie NothombItโs true that someone will always say that good and evil donโt exist: that is a person who has never had any dealings with real evil. Good is far less convincing than evil, but itโs because their chemical structures are different. Like gold, good is never found in a pure state in nature: it therefore doesnโt seem impressive. It has the unfortunate tendency not to act; it prefers, passively, to be seen.
