« In "A Bouleversé Life" (his diary), Etty Hillesum frees me from a temptation: "This morning, I gave myself half an hour of depression and anguish". If I look back on my childhood, I can see that the sad moments, the sorrows and the pain, I did not live them thoroughly. All I did was accept them on the surface. (...) Would painful memories, rejected, act like time bombs that sooner or later, if I don't defuse them, will to the mouth? »
