The opening quote for all of my presentations

Quote

"Everything that needs to be said has already been said. But since no one was listening, everything must be said again."

— André Gide, in "Le traité du Narcisse"

Ackchyually, the real quote is:

“Vous savez l’histoire. Pourtant nous la diront encore. Toutes choses sont dites déjà ; mais comme personne n’écoute, il faut toujours recommencer.”

So, in english that would be something like:

“You know the story already. Yet, we will tell it again. All things have been said; but since no one listens, we always have to start over.”
