Alain Quote

Boredom is what remains of thoughts when the passions are removed from them.

The best thing we can do for those who love us is to keep being happy.

No reasoning with fanatics. You have to be stronger than them.

The man who is afraid without danger, invents danger to justify his fear.

In moments of anxiety, do not try to reason, for your reasoning will turn against you; it is better to try to do those arm raises and bends that are taught in schools now; the result will amaze you.

Nothing possible is beautiful, only the real is beautiful.

The reader who does not admire a good book is the one who has read it poorly, and admirable passages can be cited to them that, undoubtedly, they are unaware of.

The men who have the intelligent expression, disappoint later because they do not give everything they promised us. In this sense, it is an advantage to seem foolish.

There is nothing more dangerous than an idea when you only have one.

Nothing takes as long as that which is never started.
