My opinion is a view I hold until... well, until I find something that changes it.

Women are like dreams, they are never the way you would like to have them.

We're like so many puppets hung on the wall, waiting for someone to come and move us or make us talk.

Inevitably we construct ourselves. Let me explain. I enter this house and immediately I become what I have to become, what I can become: I construct myself. That is, I present myself to you in a form suitable to the relationship I wish to achieve with you. And, of course, you do the same with me.

The secret of living is to find a pivot, the pivot of a concept on which you can make your stand.

Each of us when he appears before his fellows is clothed in a certain dignity. But every man knows what unconfessable things pass within the secrecy of his own heart.

We all grasp on to a single idea of ourselves, the way aging people dye their hair. It’s no matter that this dye doesn’t fool you. My lady, you don’t dye your hair to decieve other people, or to fool yourself, but rather to cheat your image in your mirror a little.
