Additional quotes by Frédéric Gros

You are nobody to the hills or the thick boughs heavy with greenery. You are no longer a role, or a status, not even an individual, but a body, a body that feels sharp stones on the paths, the caress of long grass and the freshness of the wind. When you walk, the world has neither present nor future: nothing but the cycle of mornings and evenings. Always the same thing to do all day: walk.

D’abord, il y a la liberté suspensive offerte par la marche, ne serait-ce qu’une simple promenade : se délester du fardeau des soucis, oublier un temps ses affaires. On choisit de ne pas emporter son bureau avec soi : on sort, on flâne, on pense à autre chose. Avec la randonnée longue de plusieurs jours, s’accentue le mouvement de déprise : on échappe aux contraintes du travail, on se libère du carcan des habitudes.

On n’est jamais personne pour les collines et les grandes frondaisons. On n’est plus ni un rôle, ni un statut, pas même un personnage, mais un corps, un corps qui ressent la pointe des cailloux sur les chemins, la caresse des hautes herbes et la fraîcheur du vent. Quand on marche, le monde n’a plus ni présent, ni futur. Il n’y a plus que le cycle des matins et des soirs. Toujours à faire la même chose tout le jour : marcher.
