Muriel Barbery Quotes

Entrusting one’s life is not the same as opening up one’s soul Picture Quote #1

... I am an anomaly in the system, living proof of how grotesque it is, and every day I mock it gently, deep within my impenetrable self Picture Quote #1

Music plays a huge role in my life. It is music that helps me to endure... well... everything there is to endure Picture Quote #1

Beauty consists of its own passing, just as we reach for it. It’s the ephemeral configuration of things in the moment, when you see both their beauty and their death... Does this mean that this is how we must live our lives? Constantly poised between beauty and death, between movement and its disappearance? Maybe that’s what being alive is all about: so we can track down those moments that are dying Picture Quote #1

We don’t recognize each other because other people have become our permanent mirrors. If we actually realized this, if we were able to become aware of the fact that we are only ever looking at ourselves in the other person, that we are alone in the wilderness, we would go crazy Picture Quote #1

If, in our world, there is any chance of becoming the person you haven’t yet become... will I know how to seize that chance, turn my life into a garden that will be completely different from my forebears’? Picture Quote #1

Beautiful things should belong to beautiful souls Picture Quote #1

I may know that the world is an ugly place, I still don’t want to see it Picture Quote #1

People think that children don’t know anything. It’s enough to make you wonder if grownups were ever children once upon a time Picture Quote #1

Yes, the world may aspire to vacuousness, lost souls mourn beauty, insignificance surrounds us. Then let us drink a cup of tea. Silence descends, one hears the wind outside, autumn leaves rustle and take flight, the cat sleeps in a warm pool of light. And, with each swallow, time is sublimed Picture Quote #1

I won’t get any better by punishing the people I can’t heal Picture Quote #1

Do you know that it is in your company that I have had my finest thoughts? Picture Quote #1
