  1. On ne se construit que dans la solitude

    La solitude fait peur. Subie, mal habitée, elle devient isolement et peut nous rendre profondément malheureux. Mais elle est aussi liberté intérieure, et selon Dominique Fernandez, écrivain et académicien, une hygiène personnelle indispensable.

  4. A quotation from Thoreau

    I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.

    Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) American philosopher and writer
    Walden; or, Life in the Woods, ch. 2 “Where I Lived, and What I Lived For” (1854)

    The Lighthouse Capitalism Stole

    A Lighthouse at the Edge of My Dreams There is a place my heart endlessly longs for—a place where time slows down and the soul can finally breathe. I yearn to leave behind the relentless noise of the city, a place where life has become so mechanical that even emotions seem scheduled. Everyone is rushing somewhere. No one has the luxury of pausing, not even to grieve or admit that they are exhausted. They simply keep running. The choking grip of carbon, the endless chorus of blaring […]

  6. A Quiet Moment by the Water: Bernie’s Favorite Rock

    Bernie had been sitting on a particular rock for what felt like a very long time.

    Not because the rock was especially comfortable – it wasn’t – but because from here she could see things she liked. The sailboats drifting lazily across the harbor. The shingled houses tucked into the green hillside. The pale blue sky showing its slow, cottony dance overhead.

    She was not lonely, she told herself. She was simply…without a companion.

    A little breeze came off the water and ruffled her feathers in a way that felt almost like a pat on the back. She appreciated that.

    Across the cove, a sailboat swung gently on its mooring, and Bernie watched it for a while. Someone was on that boat, probably. Someone with a sandwich, maybe. She thought warmly of sandwiches.

    Then the grasses behind her rustled, and a small brown head popped up from the dunes.

    “Oh,” said the newcomer, who was also a duck, and also, it turned out, very much without a companion. “I didn’t know anyone else liked it here.”

    “I like it here,” said Bernie, with quiet dignity.

    The newcomer hopped up onto the rocks beside Bernie. They sat together watching the harbor shimmer.

    Neither of them said anything for a long while.

    It was, Bernie thought, exactly enough.

  7. Les personnes qui aiment rester chez elles

    Vous êtes du genre à annuler une sortie à la dernière minute pour profiter d’un vendredi soir en pyjama ? La société vous qualifie peut-être d’« ennuyeux », mais la science dit tout le contraire.

    Dans cette vidéo, nous décryptons la psychologie fascinante des personnes qui aiment rester chez elles. Découvrez la « théorie du niveau optimal d’activation », pourquoi votre maison est votre meilleur chargeur d’énergie, et comment différencier le besoin de paix intérieure d’une forme de fuite (comme l’anxiété sociale).

    Si vous êtes fait pour la profondeur plutôt que pour le bruit, cette vidéo est pour vous !

  8. A Quiet Bench in a Busy City

    Early morning in Spitalfields, near the market and I spotted a man enjoying a moment by himself in the nearby green area.

  10. A quotation from Robert Louis Stevenson

    Solitude is the climax of the negative virtues. When we go to bed after a solitary day we can tell ourselves that we have not been unkind nor dishonest nor untruthful; and the negative virtues are agreeable to that dangerous faculty we call the conscience. That they should ever be admitted for a part of virtue is what I cannot explain. I do not care two straws for all the nots.

    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894) Scottish essayist, novelist, poet
    Essay (1880-01/02?), “Reflections and Remarks on Human Life,” § 4.6 “Solitude and Society”

  11. Bonsoir le #Fediverse !

    Vu les temps qui courent, je pense que vous partager le podcast pour lequel j'ai été interviewé•e (avril 2021) est utile voire de salut public (ok j'en rajoute peut-être... 🤫🤭)

    PODCAST. Pendant cinq ans, ce jeune lillois a sombré très profondément dans la mouvance conspirationniste. Il témoigne anonymement dans Code source de ses années d’enfermement et de sa reconstruction.

  12. A quotation from La Rochefoucauld

    Perfect valour is to behave, without witnesses, as one would act were all the world watching.
     
    [La parfaite valeur est de faire sans témoins ce qu’on serait capable de faire devant tout le monde.]

    François VI, duc de La Rochefoucauld (1613-1680) French epigrammatist, memoirist, noble
    Réflexions ou sentences et maximes morales [Reflections; or Sentences and Moral Maxims], ¶216 (1665-1678) [tr. FitzGibbon (1957)]
