Eugene Ionesco

“Beauty is a precious trace that eternity causes to appear to us and that it takes away from us. A manifestation of eternity, and a sign of death as well.”

“No society has been able to abolish human sadness, no political system can deliver us from the pain of living, from our fear of death, our thirst for the absolute. It is the human condition that directs the social condition, not vice versa.”

“Ideologies separate us. Dreams and anguish bring us together.”

“There is no religion in which everyday life is not considered a prison there is no philosophy or ideology that does not think that we live in alienation.”
