“If the sleep of reason produces monsters, what does the sleep of unreason produce?”
― Guillermo Cabrera Infante, Three Trapped Tigers
― Guillermo Cabrera Infante, Three Trapped Tigers
“Man stands face to face with the irrational. He feels within him his longing for happiness and for reason. The absurd is born of this confrontation between the human need and the unreasonable silence of the world.”
― Albert Camus, The Myth of Sisyphus and Other Essays
― Albert Camus, The Myth of Sisyphus and Other Essays
“Accepting the absurdity of everything around us is one step, a necessary experience: it should not become a dead end. It arouses a revolt that can become fruitful”
― Albert Camus

“Ça m'a pris presque un an pour réaliser qu'elle n'est nulle part, l'aventure. L'aventure ne se trouve pas dans un livre, un guide ou une expédition prévue pour ça. L'aventure est une porte qui s'ouvre par en-dedans. Le reste dépend de vous. Ça peut se passer à Bombay, à Brossard ou dans la prison de Tanguay. L'aventure débute avec la fin de la peur: de la peur de rire quand on doit se taire; de la peur de fuir quand on doit plaire; de la peur d'être nu, ridicule et vulnérable, mort; de la peur de se tromper; de la peur d'échouer. Se placer volontairement les pieds dans les plats? Pourquoi pas! Se confronter à une tâche impossible à réaliser? Kick ass, baby! L'aventure a la tête dure. L'aventure n'apprend pas de ses erreurs, sinon qu'elle n'en a jamais assez commises. Et toujours, l'aventure prend des fucking de drôles de tournures. Même que, parfois, elle commence où on croit qu'elle finit...”

“Ultimately, totalitarianism is the only sort of politics that can truly serve the sky-god's purpose. Any movement of a liberal nature endangers his authority and that of his delegates on earth. One God, one King, one Pope, one master in the factory, one father-leader in the family at home.”
