Emil Cioran Quotes
Nothing sweeter than to drag oneself along behind events; and nothing more reasonable. But without a strong dose of madness, no initiative, no enterprise, no gesture. Reason: the rust of our vitality. It is the madman in us who forces us to adventure; once he abandons us, we are lost; everything depends on him, even our vegetative life; it is he who invites us, who obliges us to breathe, and it is also he who forces our blood to venture through our veins. Once he withdraws, we are alone indeed! We cannot be normal and alive at the same time.

Addiction depends upon keeping the multiplicity of our desires unconscious.

We don't have anything in common. We just complement each other. You don't have to do everything together; you need some distance between you.

Some time or another.
