“There is no perfection only life”, from The Unbearable Lightness of Being.
After more than 30 years I am reading Milan Kundera again.
I can recall many quote and I remembered how much I had enjoyed imagining living in Prague when I was reading his books as a teenager. At some point I even wanted to study at Prague Film School (which I visited back in 2004!).
Seems like as was an existentialist from an early age, just did not know it.
And another one from Kundera: "Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring - it was peace."
