But I am not perfect in my way of putting things Because I lack the divine simplicity Of being only what I appear to be.

I am nothing. I'll never be anything. I couldn't want to be something. Apart from that, I have in me all the dreams in the world.

I believe that saying a thing is to keep its virtues and take away its terror.

To feel today what one felt yesterday isn't to feel - it's to remember today what was felt yesterday, to be today's living corpse of what yesterday was lived and lost.

To know nothing about yourself is to live. To know yourself badly is to think.

The unnatural and the strange have a perfume of their own
