Kiss & Tell QUOTES

1 " Fără încercare nu există eșec, iar fără eșec, umilință. "

― Alain de Botton , Kiss & Tell

2 " When food is considered in a psychological light, numberless theories may follow as to its meaning. Edible products cease to inhabit the domain of common sense; a fondness for radishes is no longer just a fondness for the root of a conciferous plant, it accedes to the symbolic level where, depending on one's analytical inclinations, it may become a sign of cold-bloodedness, paranoia or liberality. "

― Alain de Botton , Kiss & Tell

3 " The epitome of empathy is said to be the capacity to look at the world through another's eyes. Though our glance on the planet is largely distorted by our crooked perspectives, we may nevertheless, with luck or agility, accede to a privileged glimpse of the view from another's shoes - and in the process claim to have been able, for a moment at least, to surmount our relativity. "

― Alain de Botton , Kiss & Tell

4 " Because we inhibit the same material world and manoeuvre with languages tied to common definitions, we talk to others in the assumption that they largely share our images and conceptions. "

― Alain de Botton , Kiss & Tell
