Helene Cixous Quotes
So All Is Not Lost I Tell Myself; Therefore Nothing Being Totally Lost, Nothing Is Lost. Something Like The Courage To Be Happy Welled Up In Me And, Though Alive, The Feeling Of Being Brought Back To Life. Since Leaves May Be Granted. All That Is Required Is A Revolution In Our Habits, The Mind Working On Itself Unceasingly So As To Cast Itself Beyond Itself, Using Its Imagination To Drag Itself Towards Something It Doesn't Know How To Get To, But This Isn't So Much To Ask. I Took The Measure Of The Breadth And Solidity Of The Anguish That Had Become My Inner Space Of Late By Comparing It With The Sudden Feeling Of Emerging From A Pulmonary Cave-in And Recovering The Pleasure Of Breathing Deeply Which I Didn't Know I'd Lost, Sipping The Air. All Of A Sudden I Became Again. One Discovers By Breathing That One Had Stopped Breathing. One Only Discovers One's Stopped Breathing When One Takes The Next Breath.
