Miscellaneous
E.M. CIORAN
"Cioran's sentences are of little or no help. That is their worth. Just think of the aphorisms; each sentence has the company of only one or two others. The gaps between groups of sentences appear like sands of the desert encroaching on an oasis. Or is it the other way around? That the answer is so unclear is the worth of Cioran's sentences."
This very second has vanished forever, lost in the anonymous mass of the irrevocable. It will never return. I suffer from this, and I do not. Everything is unique
– and insignificant.
– The Trouble With Being Born

For another aphorism,
just RELOAD this page.
