the search for unspoken happiness (4 April 2016)



The house a woman creates is a Utopia. She can't help it - can't help trying to interest her nearest and dearest not in happiness itself but in the search for it.
- Marguerite Duras



It’s not that you have to achieve anything, it’s that you have to get away from where you are.
- Marguerite Duras




Men like women who write. Even though they don't say so. A writer is a foreign country.
- Marguerite Duras



I often think of the image only I can see now, and of which I’ve never spoken. It’s always there, in the same silence, amazing. It’s the only image of myself I like, the only one in which I recognize myself, in which I delight.
- Marguerite Duras
