ALCESTE: I’m going to leave this abyss where vice holds sway, And on earth seek a place far away, Where I can, in freedom, be a man of
good.
Molière, The Misanthrope
I’m not asking you to suppress your fatigue. I’m asking you to take me to a place where it’s possible to be tired.
Maurice Blanchot, L’Entretien infini
