“Tous les matins du monde sont sans retour.”
― Pascal Quignard, Tous les matins du monde

“في العناق يتلاشى شيء ما ينتمي إلى السعادة . و في أكمل أشكال الحب , في السعادة نفسها ثمة رغبة بأن يهوي كل شيء فجأة في الموت . اللذة التي فاضت للتو بالعنف يتجاوزها حزن غير نفساني , أسى مثير للفزع , دموع مطلقة . في اللذة ثمة شيء يموت .
ما يغم القلب هو شعور بالحنان إزاء الاخر , إحساس باللحظة غير الممكنة لنا , غيرة من شيء ما نجهله في الماضي , و لا نستطيع إرجاعه . زوال الانتفاخ المليء بالفرح الذي يصحبه شعور بعدم قابلية التجدد , يجاور رغبة بالبكاء . عندما تنتابنا أقوى مشاعر الحب فإن شيئا ما ينتهي .”
― Pascal Quignard
