I give so much pleasure to so many people. Why can I not get some pleasure for myself?
I know many beautiful people and their lives are just so terrible. They feel so uncomfortable with themselves. Being comfortable is not about what you look like, but how you feel.
In a couple, sometimes, one or both people have to give up their personal life, dreams and ambitions for the good of the family.
When people divorce, it's always such a tragedy. At the same time, if people stay together it can be even worse.
Conquered people tend to be witty.
People can lose their lives in libraries. They ought to be warned.
I think that they participated in something that was not very proper and was very pitiful, not only for the Algerian people, but also for the other people who counted on our support.
The liberation movement which I led in Algeria, the organization that I created to fight the French army, was at first a small movement of nothing at all. We were but some tens of people throughout Algeria, a territory that is five times the size of France.
There are so few strong roles for women, especially young women. And Veronica is very serious but also very likable. She's a lone wolf, and it appeals to people that she isn't rich and doesn't have a lot of friends. No posse. She's just like you, like most of us.
I'm more of a homebody. I'm constantly asked: 'Why don't we see you out?' But that's not what drives me. I prefer to have people over - which I do a lot, because I bought a house that's way too big for me, and four of my friends live there.
When theology erodes and organization crumbles, when the institutional framework of religion begins to break up, the search for a direct experience which people can feel to be religious facilitates the rise of cults.
All sensitive people agree that there is a peculiar emotion provoked by works of art.
We all agree now - by "we" I mean intelligent people under sixty - that a work of art is like a rose. A rose is not beautiful because it is like something else. Neither is a work of art. Roses and works of art are beautiful in themselves.
So many people are accustomed to written information that you really have to have a few more bells and whistles in this day and age.
I think that people need to have the courage of their convictions and not be trying to fool people into thinking that they've changed overnight.
