« Adolescere » : grandir vers, mais vers quoi ?
Face au besoin de l'immédiateté et de l'hyper-connectivité courante, la société dans son ensemble est dans une quête identitaire.

Du bon usage de l’inutilité
On lit chez Cioran cette anecdote : alors qu’on prépare la ciguë qui doit l’empoisonner, Socrate apprend un air de flûte. « A quoi cela servira-t-il donc ? » lui demande-t-on. A savoir cet air avant de mourir fut la réponse. La connaissance comme fin en soi, en somme.
