Raymond Radiguet
“It is not in novelty but in habit that we find the greatest pleasure.”
Raymond Radiguet“In her unworldly voice she thanked them for finally understanding her. She reminded me of a female pirate captain alone on the deck of her sinking ship.”
Raymond Radiguet, The Devil in the Flesh“It was then I realized that no one can escape his age, and that my dangerous contempt had melted like ice the moment someone was kind enough to show they cared about me, and in a way that suited me.”
Raymond Radiguet, The Devil in the Flesh“What distresses us is not loosing life, but losing what gives it meaning.”
Raymond Radiguet, The Devil in the Flesh“Is the selfishness of children really so different from our own? During the summer in the country we curse the rain, while the farmers are crying out for it.”
Raymond Radiguet, The Devil in the Flesh“I loved it when my heart beat quickly and erratically. Yet I found this performance, which was deeply poetic, more enjoyable.”
Raymond Radiguet, The Devil in the Flesh“Facing death calmly is praiseworthy only if one faces it alone. Death together is no longer death, even for unbelievers. The source of sorrows lies not in leaving life, but in leaving that which gives it meaning. When love is our whole life, what difference is there between living together and dying together ?”
Raymond Radiguet, The Devil in the Flesh“Happiness thinks only of itself.”
