Симона Вейль: Цитаты на английском языке

“The prestige which constitutes three-fourths of might is first of all made up of that superb indifference which the powerful have for the weak, an indifference so contagious that it is communicated even to those who are its object.”

Simone Weil

Le prestige, qui constitue la force plus qu'aux trois quarts, est fait avant tout de la superbe indifférence du fort pour les faibles, indifférence si contagieuse qu'elle se communique à ceux qui en sont l'objet.
in The Simone Weil Reader, p. 168
Simone Weil : An Anthology (1986), The Iliad or The Poem of Force (1940-1941)

“The full expression of personality depends upon its being inflated by social prestige; it is a social privilege.”

Simone Weil

Источник: Simone Weil : An Anthology (1986), Human Personality (1943), p. 64

“The state of conformity is an imitation of grace.”

Simone Weil

Источник: Simone Weil : An Anthology (1986), The Great Beast (1947), p. 124
Контексте: The state of conformity is an imitation of grace. By a strange mystery — which is connected with the power of the social element — a profession can confer on quite ordinary men in their exercise of it, virtues which, if they were extended to all circumstances of life, would make of them heroes or saints.
But the power of the social element makes these virtues natural. Accordingly they need a compensation.

“Although people seem to be unaware of it today, the development of the faculty of attention forms the real object and almost the sole interest of studies.”

Simone Weil

Waiting on God (1950), Reflections on the Right Use of School Studies with a View to the Love of God

“Rome is the Great Beast of atheism and materialism, adoring nothing but itself. Israel is the Great Beast of religion. Neither one nor the other is likable. The Great Beast is always repulsive.”

Simone Weil

Источник: Simone Weil : An Anthology (1986), The Great Beast (1947), p. 123; it should be noted that in this comment she is referring to the intolerant traditions of ancient Rome and ancient Isreal, and not the modern entities, one of which did not yet exist at the time of her writing.

“The soul was not made to dwell in a thing; and when forced to it, there is no part of that soul but suffers violence.”

Simone Weil

Une âme ... n'est pas faite pour habiter une chose ; quand elle y est contrainte, il n’est plus rien en elle qui ne souffre violence.
in The Simone Weil Reader, p. 155
Simone Weil : An Anthology (1986), The Iliad or The Poem of Force (1940-1941)

“If we want a love which will protect the soul from wounds we must love something other than God.”

Simone Weil

Источник: Simone Weil : An Anthology (1986), Love (1947), p. 62

“Might is that which makes a thing of anybody who comes under its sway. When exercised to the full, it makes a thing of man in the most literal sense, for it makes him a corpse.”

Simone Weil

La force, c'est ce qui fait de quiconque lui est soumis une chose. Quand elle s'exerce jusqu'au bout, elle fait de l'homme une chose au sens le plus littéral, car elle en fait un cadavre.
in The Simone Weil Reader, p. 153
Simone Weil : An Anthology (1986), The Iliad or The Poem of Force (1940-1941)

“The eulogies of my intelligence are positively intended to evade the question "Is what she says true?"”

Simone Weil

Letter to her parents (1943), as quoted in the Introduction by Siân Miles
Источник: Simone Weil : An Anthology (1986), p. 2

“Only he who has measured the dominion of force, and knows how not to respect it, is capable of love and justice.”

Simone Weil

Il n'est possible d'aimer et d'être juste que si l'on connaît l'empire de la force et si l'on sait ne pas le respecter.
Источник: Simone Weil : An Anthology (1986), The Iliad or The Poem of Force (1940-1941), p. 192

“He who does not realize to what extent shifting fortune and necessity hold in subjection every human spirit, cannot regard as fellow-creatures nor love as he loves himself those whom chance separated from him by an abyss. The variety of constraints pressing upon man give rise to the illusion of several distinct species that cannot communicate.”

Simone Weil

Celui qui ignore à quel point la fortune variable et la nécessité tiennent toute âme humaine sous leur dépendance ne peut pas regarder comme des semblables ni aimer comme soi-même ceux que le hasard a séparés de lui par un abîme. La diversité des contraintes qui pèsent sur les hommes fait naître l'illusion qu'il y a parmi eux des espèces distinctes qui ne peuvent communiquer.
Источник: Simone Weil : An Anthology (1986), The Iliad or The Poem of Force (1940-1941), p. 192

“A Pharisee is someone who is virtuous out of obedience to the Great Beast.”

Simone Weil

Источник: Simone Weil : An Anthology (1986), The Great Beast (1947), p. 125

“The Great Beast is the only object of idolatry, the only ersatz of God, the only imitation of something which is infinitely far from me and which is I myself.”

Simone Weil

Источник: Simone Weil : An Anthology (1986), The Great Beast (1947), p. 121; footnote in Gravity and Grace edited by Gustave Thibon: To adore the "Great Beast" is to think and act in conformity with the prejudices and reactions of the multitude to the detriment of all personal search for truth and goodness.
