“Solitude is indeed dangerous for a working intelligence. We need to have around us people who think and speak. When we are alone for a long time we people the void with phantoms”
― Le Horla et autres contes fantastiques
“Our memory is a more perfect world than the universe: it gives back life to those who no longer exist.”
―“There is only one good thing in life, and that is love.”“Words dazzle and deceive because they are mimed by the face. But black words on a white page are the soul laid bare.”

“We breathe, sleep, drink, eat, work and then die! The end of life is death. What do you long for? Love? A few kisses and you will be powerless. Money? What for? To gratify your desires. Glory? What comes after it all? Death! Death alone is certain.”
― Bel-Ami“A lawful kiss is never worth as much as a stolen one.”
