More quotes by Emile M. Cioran
To Live signifies to believe and hope - to lie and to lie to oneself.
Emile M. Cioran
Boredom dismantles the mind, renders it superficial, out at the seams, saps it from within and dislocates it.
Emile M. Cioran
It is an understatement to say that in this society injustices abound: in truth, it is itself the quintessence of injustice.
Emile M. Cioran
I lost my sleep, and this is the greatest tragedy that can befall someone. It is much worse than sitting in prison.
Emile M. Cioran
It is not worth the bother of killing yourself, since you always kill yourself too late.
Emile M. Cioran
No matter which way we go, it is no better than any other. It is all the same whether you achieve something or not, have faith or not, just as it is all the same whether you cry or remain silent.
Emile M. Cioran

Emile M. Cioran
My mission is to kill time, and time's to kill me in its turn. How comfortable one is among murderers.
Emile M. Cioran
Afflicted with existence, each man endures like an animal the consequences which proceed from it. Thus, in a world where everything is detestable, hatred becomes huger than the world and, having transcended its object, cancels itself out.
Emile M. Cioran
Man started out on the wrong foot. The misadventure in paradise was the first consequence. The rest had to follow.
Emile M. Cioran
Life is merely a fracas on an unmapped terrain, and the universe a geometry stricken with epilepsy.
Emile M. Cioran
The true hero fights and dies in the name of his destiny, and not in the name of a belief.
Emile M. Cioran
Thinking should be like musical meditation. Has any philosopher pursued a thought to its limits the way Bach or Beethoven develop and exhaust a musical theme? Even after having read the most profound thinkers, one still feels the need to begin anew. Only music gives definitive answers.
Emile M. Cioran
Our place is somewhere between being and nonbeing - between two fictions.
Emile M. Cioran
The premonition of madness is complicated by the fear of lucidity in madness, the fear of the moments of return and reunion... One would welcome chaos if one were not afraid of lights in it.
Emile M. Cioran
When we cannot be delivered from ourselves, we delight in devouring ourselves.
Emile M. Cioran
Even when nothing happens, everything seems too much for me. What can be said, then, in the presence of an event, any event?
Emile M. Cioran
Time is heavy sometimes imagine how heavy eternity must be.
Emile M. Cioran
Progress is the injustice each generation commits with regard to its predecessors.
Emile M. Cioran
Do I look like someone who has something to do here on earth?' —That's what I'd like to answer the busybodies who inquire into my activities.
