Famous quotes containing the words weil and/or transforms:

    Nothing can have as its destination anything other than its origin. The contrary idea, the idea of progress, is poison.
    —Simone Weil (1909–1943)

    It is old age, rather than death, that is to be contrasted with life. Old age is life’s parody, whereas death transforms life into a destiny: in a way it preserves it by giving it the absolute dimension. ... Death does away with time.
    Simone De Beauvoir (1908–1986)
