Perhaps it would be sweet to be, in turn, both victim and executioner.
Il serait peut-être doux d'être alternativement victime et bourreau.

This life is a hospital where each patient is possessed by the desire to change his bed.
We have psychologized like the insane, who aggravate their madness in struggling to understand it.
