French philosopher 1926–1984Related quotes

“If you ask me to play myself, I will not know what to do. I do not know who or what I am.”
As quoted in Halliwell's Filmgoer's Companion (1988) by Leslie Halliwell, p. 622

“What then is time? If no one asks me, I know what it is. If I wish to explain it to him who asks, I do not know.”
Quid est ergo tempus? Si nemo ex me quaerat, scio; si quaerenti explicare velim, nescio.
XI, 14
Confessions (c. 397)
“My dignity asks him who does me no harm to do me no harm. Of him who harms me it asks nothing.”
Mi dignidad le pide a quien no me hace daño que no me haga daño, y a quien me hace daño no le pide nada.
Voces (1943)
