Všechno co mělo být řečeno, už někdo někdy řekl. Ale protože nikdo neposlouchal, musí se to zopakovat.

'You have to let other people be #right' was his answer to their insults. 'It consoles them for not being anything else'

@gastarbajterica “Twenty-One Love Poems” is such an amazing sequence! We discussed the passage with the dog in my seminar on Rich in Spring 2021 (all on Zoom then …).
Here are two posts of mine about other moments in the sequence:

“What another would have said as well as you, do not say it; what another would have written as well, do not write it. Be faithful to that which exists nowhere but in yourself - and thus make yourself indispensable.”
André Gide
La hauteur de l'orgueil se mesure à la profondeur du mépris.
#AndréGide / Journal (édition 1943)
Ce que l'on découvre ou redécouvre soi-même ce sont des vérités vivantes ; la tradition nous invite à n'accepter que des cadavres de vérités.
#AndréGide / Journal 1889 - 1939 (8/02/1932)
Know thyself! A maxim as pernicious as it is ugly. Whoever observes himself arrests his own development. A caterpillar who wanted to know itself would never become a butterfly.
