Simone de Beauvoir
“One's life has value so long as one attributes value to the life of others.”
― Simone de Beauvoir

Simone de Beauvoir
“I am awfully greedy; I want everything from life. I want to be a woman and to be a man, to have many friends and to have loneliness, to work much and write good books, to travel and enjoy myself, to be selfish and to be unselfish… You see, it is difficult to get all which I want. And then when I do not succeed I get mad with anger.”
― Simone de Beauvoir

André Aciman
“You never did forgive me, did you?'

'Forgive? There was nothing to forgive. If anything, I'm grateful for everything. I remember good things only.'

I had heard people say this in movies. They seemed to believe it.”
― André Aciman, Call Me by Your Name

André Aciman
“Don’t let him be someone else when he’s away. Don’t let him be someone I’ve never seen before. Don’t let him have a life other than the life I know he has with us, with me.”
― André Aciman, Call Me by Your Name

André Aciman
“Oliver was Oliver,' I said, as if that summed things up.

'Parce que c'était lui, parce que c'était moi,' my father added, quoting Montaigne's all-encompassing explanation for his friendship with Etienne de la Boétie.

I was thinking, instead, of Emily Brontë's words: because 'he's more myself than I am.”
― André Aciman, Call Me by Your Name
