I ask myself this question each time I make a new acquaintance. So strange does it seem to me that we exist, and that we consent to exist  (Emile M Cioran Quotes) Psychoanalysis is a technique we practice at our cost; psychoanalysis degrades our risks, our dangers, our depths; it strips us of our impurities, of all that made us curious about ourselves  (Emile M Cioran Quotes) The aphorism is cultivated only by those who have known fear in the midst of words, that fear of collapsing with all the words  (Emile M Cioran Quotes) Boredom dismantles the mind, renders it superficial, out at the seams, saps it from within and dislocates it  (Emile M Cioran Quotes) If you lack the power to demoralize yourself along with the age, to go as low and as far, do not complain of being misunderstood by it  (Emile M Cioran Quotes) The wise man, the sage, is hostile to the new. Disabused, he abdicates: that is his form of protest  (Emile M Cioran Quotes) Tyranny destroys or strengthens the individual; freedom enervates him, until he becomes no more than a puppet.
