Nom Quotes

“When I’m tired of living where I live, I leave. It’s simple. I could easily live without an apartment just as I could easily live without a mistress. Life is a series of entrances and exits. I think that’s what I mean by events. Entrances and exits. That’s always interested me. In order for an entrance or an exit to happen, in order for it to be fluid, you have to stay light at your core. No agenda. No possessions. No opinions either, or not too many of them. To have as light a core as possible. Or even no core at all. My life is very simple now. That it all became possible through homosexuality doesn’t have to distract us. No muss no fuss. The system doesn’t allow for it.”

“In life it's either beauty or power. Power is for those who lack the courage to be beautiful. The two sides are at war, since forever, since the Iliad and the Odyssey. You only need to place them side by side to see that they don't get on. That they have nothing to say to one another.”
