Hello and welcome to my userpage, which has never really been designed, but just grew. Most of the stuff further down is just links or information I might want to refer to, since it's so easy to click my username at the top and find myself here.

About me

  • My mother tongue is French
  • My interests include music, environmental issues, art, travel
  • I like working on disambiguation and list pages...

Manifesto

Part of a band pass filter
  • no person is boring – boredom is your own fault
  • spread a little happiness, start a chain reaction
  • people treasure appreciation – be generous

Favourite quotations:

  • the greatest success is to help others to succeed; the greatest blessing is to bring blessings on others
  • make sure your words are soft and sweet – you may have to eat them tomorrow
  • The only thing men learn from history is that men learn nothing from history.” (Hegel)
  • Add life to your days – not days to your life
