Author of quotes: Henri Bergson

A thousand photographs of Paris are not Paris.

Intuition is a selfless instinct that can reflect on one's own object and fill it indefinitely.

Think like a man of action, act like a man of thought.

Nature actually has in its possession nor in prison, nor exile; she only admits to a death sentence.

To exist is to change, change is to Mature, and to Mature means to endlessly build itself.

Humanity is suffering and half crushed by the burden of progress it has reached.

It would be as absurd to refuse consciousness to an animal because it has no brain as to declare that it is not able to eat because he has no stomach.

Our life path is strewn with the wreckage of what we started out to be and what we could become.

Death is mysterious cure against vanity.

A person feels his duty only if he is free.
