La beaute du monde, c'est la sante du monde - Marguerite Yourcenar
Combustion froide,
Une femme, silhouette affirmée, allume un petit objet à la flamme d’un briquet. Mèche noire, regards hors champ, atmosphère domestique mais tension palpable. Geste simple, mais chargé d’intention. Le décor est neutre, presque complice : une prise murale, une décoration banale, rien qui ne distrait du feu. L’instant est brut, sans fioriture — une scène qui parle d’action plus que d’émotion.
Les-portes-du-sud
Pour les amis la douceur du printemps, pour les ennemis la froideur de l'hiver.
Lei Feng
Être aimé plus qu'on aime est une des croix de la vie. Parce que cela nous contraint soit à feindre un sentiment de retour qu'on n'éprouve pas, soit à faire souffrir par sa froideur et ses rebuts.
Henry de Montherlant (Les jeunes filles)
