A hurtful act is the transference to others of the degradation which we bear in ourselves.
From Simone Weil
Evil being the root of mystery, pain is the root of knowledge.
One cannot imagine St. Francis of Assisi talking about rights.
Most works of art, like most wines, ought to be consumed in the district of their fabrication.
There is one, and only one, thing in modern society more hideous than crime namely, repressive justice.
The only way into truth is through one's own annihilation; through dwelling a long time in a state of extreme and total humiliation.
Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be attained only by someone who is detached.
To be a hero or a heroine, one must give an order to oneself.
I can, therefore I am.
There is no detachment where there is no pain. And there is no pain endured without hatred or lying unless detachment is present too.
