Cioran was a consummate master of lapidary aphorisms.
Here is one, dear to my heart:
On ne réfléchit que parce qu'on se dérobe à l'acte.
Penser, c'est être en retrait.
We reflect for no other reason than to avoid doing.
To think, is to be in withdrawal
It is true. I have pondered enough. To me, now, there is nothing else but Doing.
