Inner Experience QUOTES

1 " The warrior's nobility is like a prostitute's smile, the truth of which is self-interest. "

― Georges Bataille , Inner Experience

2 " Deneyin bizi alıp götürdüğü yere götürmesini istedim. "

― Georges Bataille , Inner Experience

3 " We have in fact only two certainties in this world—that we are not everything and that we will die. To be conscious of not being everything, as one is of being mortal, is nothing. But if we are without a narcotic, an unbreathable void reveals itself. I wanted to be everything, so that falling into this void, I might summon my courage and say to myself: “I am ashamed of having wanted to be everything, for I see now that it was to sleep.” From that moment begins a singular experience. The mind moves in a strange world where anguish and ecstasy coexist. "

― Georges Bataille , Inner Experience

4 " the word silence is still a sound, to speak is in itself to imagine knowing; and to no longer know, it would be necessary to no longer speak "

― Georges Bataille , Inner Experience

5 " El tiempo no significa más que la huida de los objetos que parecían verdaderos. "

― Georges Bataille , Inner Experience

6 " If poetry introduces the strange, it does so by means of the familiar. The poetic is the familiar dissolving into the strange, and ourselves with it. It never dispossesses us entirely, for the words, the images (once dissolved) are charged with emotions already experienced, attached to objects which link them to the known. "

― Georges Bataille , Inner Experience

7 " Lo serio, la muerte y el dolor fundan la verdad
obtusa. Pero lo serio de la muerte y el dolor es la servidumbre del pensamiento. "

― Georges Bataille , Inner Experience

8 " Life will dissolve itself in death, rivers in the sea, and the known in the unknown. "

― Georges Bataille , Inner Experience

9 " The difference between inner experience and philosophy resides principally in this: that in experience, what is stated is nothing, if not a means and even, as much as a means, an obstacle; what counts is no longer the statement of wind, but the wind. "

― Georges Bataille , Inner Experience
