Mihail Sebastian Quotes
I Could Reply. I Could Tell Him That A Metaphor Is Inadequate In The Face Of A Bloodbath. That A Platonic Inclination For Dying Doesn't Balance Out The Serious Decision To Kill. That Through The Ages There Has Never Been A Great Historical Infamy Committed For Which There Couldn't Be Found A Symbol Just As Big, To Justify It. That, In Consequence, We Would Do Well To Pay Attention To Great Certainties, To Great Invocations, To The Great 'droughts' And 'rains'. That The Temper Of Our Most Violent Outbursts Might Benefit From A Shade Less Enthusiasm.
I Could Reply. But What Good Would It Do? I Have A Simple, Resigned, Inexplicable Sensation That Everything That Is Happening Is In The Normal Order Of Things And That I Am Awaiting A Season That Will Come And Pass
Because It Has Come And Passed Before.
