Quotes About Consolation

S'identifier à l'univers même. Tout ce qui est moindre que l'univers est soumis à la souffrance. J'ai beau mourir, l'univers continu. Cela ne me console pas si je suis autre que l'univers.

~ Simone Weil

~ Emil Cioran

It would be a good year for honey
~ Beatrice Colin

When a child is lost there is no end to the self-torment a parent may inflict.
