Simone Weil Quote

We possess nothing in the world — a mere chance can strip us of everything — except the power to say 'I'.


Gravity and Grace (1947)


We possess nothing in the world — a mere chance can strip us of everything — except the power to say 'I'.

We possess nothing in the world — a mere chance can strip us of everything — except the power to say 'I'.

We possess nothing in the world — a mere chance can strip us of everything — except the power to say 'I'.

We possess nothing in the world — a mere chance can strip us of everything — except the power to say 'I'.
