Henry David Thoreau

Louis-Ferdinand Celine Quotes

Almost every desire a poor man has is a punishable offence.
Louis-Ferdinand Celine

Louis-Ferdinand Celine

Experience is a dim lamp, which only lights the one who bears it.
Louis-Ferdinand Celine

If you aren't rich you should always look useful.
Louis-Ferdinand Celine

Life is filigree work. What is written clearly is not worth much, it's the transparency that counts.
Louis-Ferdinand Celine

Living, just by itself - what a dirge that is! Life is a classroom and Boredom's the usher, there all the time to spy on you; whatever happens, you've got to look as if you were awfully busy all the time doing something that's terribly exciting - or he'll come along and nibble your brain.
Louis-Ferdinand Celine

One can't relive one's life. Forgiveness is not what's difficult; one's always too ready to forgive. And it does no good, that's obvious.
Louis-Ferdinand Celine

The poetry of heroism appeals irresistibly to those who don't go to a war, and even more to those whom the war is making enormously wealthy. It's always so.
Louis-Ferdinand Celine

We've no use for intellectuals in this outfit. What we need is chimpanzees. Let me give you a word of advice: never say a word to us about being intelligent. We will think for you, my friend. Don't forget it.
Louis-Ferdinand Celine

With two thousand years of Christianity behind him... a man can't see a regiment of soldiers march past without going off the deep end. It starts off far too many ideas in his head.
Louis-Ferdinand Celine
