Night is falling: at dusk, you must have good eyesight to be able to tell the Good Lord from the Devil.

We are our choices.

In the state I was in, if someone had come and told me I could go home quietly, that they would leave me my life whole, it would have left me cold: several hours or several years of waiting is all the same when you have lost the illusion of being eternal.

A writer who takes political, social or literary positions must act only with the means that are his. These means are the written words.

To be responsible is to be the uncontested author of an event or thing.

I am responsible for everything... except my very responsibility.

But for me there is neither Monday nor Sunday: there are days which pass in disorder, and then, sudden lightning like this one. Nothing has changed and yet everything is different. I can't describe it, it's like the Nausea and yet it's just the opposite: at last an adventure happens to me and when I question myself I see that it happens that I am myself and that I am here; I am the one who splits in the night, I am as happy as the hero of a novel.
