Simone de Beauvoir Zitate

→

Simone de Beauvoir

Deutsche Übersetzung

Es ist eher das Alter als der Tod, der dem Leben gegenübergestellt wird. Das Alter ist die Parodie des Lebens, während der Tod das Leben in ein Schicksal verwandelt: in gewisser Weise erhält es es, indem es ihm die absolute Dimension verleiht. Der Tod beseitigt die Zeit.
