People who don't read are brutes.
Eugène IonescoChildhood is the world of miracle and wonder; as if creation rose, bathed in the light, out of the darkness, utterly new and fresh and astonishing. The end of childhood is when things cease to astonish us.
Eugène IonescoWhy do people always expect authors to answer questions? I am an author because I want to ask questions. If I had answers, I'd be a politician.
Eugène IonescoIt is not the answer that enlightens, but the question.
Eugène IonescoIdeologies separate us. Dreams and anguish bring us together.
Eugène IonescoWhen I was born, I was almost fourteen years old. That's why I was able to understand more easily than most what it was all about.
Eugène IonescoIn the history of humanity there are no civilizations or cultures which fail to manifest, in one or a thousand ways, this need for an absolute that is called heaven, freedom, a miracle, a lost paradise to be regained, peace, the going beyond History... There is no religion in which everyday life is not considered a prison; there is no philosophy or ideology that does not think that we live in alienation.... Humanity has always had a nostalgia for the freedom that is only beauty, that is only real; life, plenitude, light.
Eugène IonescoOh words, what crimes are committed in your name?
~Jack or The Submission

Eugène IonescoPoliticians are either there or here or totally at home. Their finitude is more than sufficient unto itself. I don’t mean to imply that I’m any better than they which does not mean that they are any better than I. Which doesn’t mean anything at all.
