The attitude of someone who is sincerely looking for answers is to be open to all sources of information that may be able to help him in his business, regardless of how reliable they may seem, something that should only be analyzed later. Not to do so would be to close off possibilities beforehand, something unthinkable for someone who wants the truth first and foremost, and therefore craves any clue that might lead to it. In fact, the credibility of a source is only a problem for the hasty journalist, who has to conclude before researching. Apart from that, there is always something useful to be found.

It Takes a While to Understand That…
It takes a while to understand that one can only have, or rather, one can only pursue a small part of what one wants. And so it is necessary to prioritize, to choose. Then, curiously, one discovers that to limit oneself is to distinguish oneself, and that to stick to little is to reward oneself with greater satisfaction. It sounds like a small thing, but the difference is enormous between the average man and the one who has stripped himself of the unnecessary, become lighter and allowed himself to concentrate on what he truly wants.
There Are Inexplicable Experiences…
There are inexplicable experiences, the scale of which can only be grasped by he who has lived them first-hand. One of these is undoubtedly the deceitfulness of modernity. The amount of lies that are taught in schools today, or rather the amount of lies that students assimilate not just as certainties, but with veneration, is something that men from other eras could only understand superficially. Complete falsehoods, such as the history of the French Revolution, or the biographies of figures like Newton, Descartes, Machiavelli, or the emergence of so-called modern science, or the history of the Inquisition, the Catholic Church, slavery, and the list goes on and on, one has to have swallowed and digested them very well to be able, years later, to shake with the proper astonishment at seeing them incontestably debunked by a huge pile of books and documents. All lies! All saturated with ulterior motives! Then one feels the contempt that modernity deserves, and only a good modern is capable of feeling it.
The Act That Unites Writers and Sets…
The act that unites writers and sets them apart from ordinary people is sitting down to write. Sitting down, isolating the mind, enveloping it in a silence that only allows the inner voice to manifest. And then to put it down on paper. This act, which is both creative and organizing, if for some it serves as therapy, for all it serves as a guide, and once the brain gets used to it, to refrain from it is almost always to fall into disorientation.
