« I owe no gratitude to my parents for giving me life, for I was not wanted. Their union had been the choice of their own parents. I was conceived without love by two wise children who had to obey their parents and wanted to father a boy, in order to give a grandson to the grandfathers. They were born a girl, who tried, for decades, to implement all her faculties to make them happy, a business actually without hope. But this child wanted to survive, and I had no choice but to multiply my efforts. »

« When you grow up surrounded by love and respect, you don't want to go to war. Evil is not necessarily inscribed in human nature. (p. 67) »

« The story of Creation has focused for me, since my childhood, on the apple, the forbidden fruit. I could not understand why Adam and Eve had been forbidden to seek knowledge. For me, knowledge and consciousness have always been a positive thing. It seemed to me illogical, therefore, that God forbade Adam and Eve to discover the essential difference between good and evil. Subsequently, I learned different interpretations of the story of Creation, but my childish revolt continued. I intuitively refused to consider obedience as a virtue, curiosity as a sin, and ignorance of good and evil as the ideal state, for for me, the apple of Knowledge was able to identify Evil and thus represented liberation, and therefore Good. I know that there are countless theological explanations of the reasons for divine injunctions. But these justifications seem to me too often to reflect the attitude of the terrorized child who tries to believe that everything the parents do is good, a mark of affection, even when he does not understand their actions and cannot understand them, because the parents themselves are not aware of their own motivations, buried in the dark depths of their own childhood. »
