Writing is just having a sheet of paper, a pen and not a shadow of an idea of what you are going to say.

No one ever has time to examine himself honestly, and most people look no further than their neighbors' eyes, in which they may see their own reflection.

I think the best way to waste time is to try to save time.

The happiness of others is never bearable for very long.

All my life, I will continue obstinately to write about love, solitude and passion among the kind of people I know. The rest don't interest me.

Life has confirmed for me the thoughts and impressions I had when I was 18, as if it was all intuition.

If you treat life well, life is usually good to you. And I love life. There's a long-standing affair between us.
