Milan Kundera

About Author: Czechoslovakian novelist (1929 - )

Quotes:

  • When the heart speaks, the mind finds it indecent to object.

  • The struggle of man against power is the struggle of memory against forgetting.

  • Tomas did not realize at the time that metaphors are dangerous. Metaphors are not to be trifled with. A single metaphor can give birth to love.

  • To laugh is to live profoundly.

  • We must never allow the future to be weighed down by memory. For children have no past, and that is the whole secret of the magical innocence of their smiles.

  • Laughing deeply is living deeply.

  • The stupidity of people comes from having an answer to everything. The wisdom of the novel comes from having a question for everything... it seems to me that all over the world people nowadays prefer to judge rather than to understand, to answer rather than to ask, so that the voice of the novel can hardly be heard over the noisy foolishness of human certainties.
