Lebih baik dibenci karena apa adanya daripada dicintai karena kepura-puraan. - André Gide

I exist only as a whole; my only claim is to be natural, and the pleasure I feel in an action, I take as a sign that I ought to do it.

But I think there comes a point in love, a unique moment which later on the soul seeks in vain to surpass, and that the effort to revive such happiness depletes it; that nothing thwarts happiness so much as the memory of happiness.

Il y a des maladies extravagantes.
Qui consistent à vouloir ce que l'on n'a pas.
