Milan Kundera Quotes About Eyes

• Atravesamos el presente con los ojos vendados. Sólo se nos permite intuir y adivinar lo que estamos viviendo. Sólo más tarde, cuando se desata la venda, podemos echar un vistazo al pasado y averiguar qué hemos vivido y qué significado tiene.

  Milan Kundera

  Ojo, Pasado, Miradas

• Todos necesitamos que alguien nos mire. Podemos dividirnos en cuatro categorías según el tipo de mirada bajo la que deseemos vivir. . . La cuarta categoría, la más rara, es la de las personas que viven en la mirada imaginaria de los que no están presentes. Son los soñadores.

• El racismo estético es casi siempre un signo de inexperiencia. Quienes no se han adentrado lo suficiente en el mundo de las delicias amorosas juzgan a las mujeres sólo por lo que se ve. Pero quienes realmente conocen a las mujeres comprenden que el ojo sólo revela una ínfima fracción de lo que una mujer puede ofrecernos. Cuando Dios ordenó a la humanidad que fructificara y se multiplicara, Doctor, estaba pensando tanto en lo feo como en lo bello. Estoy convencido, debo añadir, de que el criterio estético no procede de Dios, sino del diablo. En el paraíso no se distinguía entre fealdad y belleza.

• For Sabina, living in truth, lying neither to ourselves nor to others, was possible only away from the public: the moment someone keeps an eye on what we do, we involuntarily make allowances for that eye, and nothing we do is truthful.

• In Tereza’s eyes, books were the emblems of a secret brotherhood. For she had but a single weapon against the world of crudity surrounding her: the novels. She had read any number of them, from Fielding to Thomas Mann. They not only offered the possibility of an imaginary escape from a life she found unsatisfying; they also had a meaning for her as physical objects: she loved to walk down the street with a book under her arm. It had the same significance for her as an elegant cane from the dandy a century ago. It differentiated her from others.

• The day after his father left, Franz and his mother went into town together, and as they left home Franz noticed that her shoes did not match. He was in a quandary: he wanted to point out the mistake, but was afraid he would hurt her. So, during the two hours they spent walking through the city together he kept his eyes focused on her feet. It was then he had his first inkling of what it means to suffer.
