The light of memory, or rather the light that memory lends to things, is the palest light of all. I am not quite sure whether I am dreaming or remembering, whether I have lived my life or dreamed it. Just as dreams do, memory makes me profoundly aware of the unreality, the evanescence of the world, a fleeting image in the moving water.

Realism falls short of reality. It shrinks it, attenuates it, falsifies it; it does not take into account our basic truths and our fundamental obsessions: love, death, astonishment. It presents man in a reduced and estranged perspective. Truth is in our dreams, in the imagination.

Englezul şi-n casă goală e ca la curtea regală.

Eugène Ionesco


Go to quote


إنه يكتب لأنه يتساءل عن ماهية العالم, أو لأنه يريد أن يبرر وجوده, أو لأنه يرغب فى تأدية رسالة أخلاقية أو سياسية.. ولكنها كلها علل وأعذار تخفى وراءها باعثا أعمق لا يستطيع الفكر إدراك كنهه. وربما لم يكن هذا الباعث سوى شهوة الخلق.

Eugène Ionesco
