"Pense bête" is the expression used to indicate a "reminder".



The word "Bête" has two meanings: beast and stupid.



In the context of the expression "pense bête", I think, and I'm not a linguist or French, I simply live in France... so I could very well be wrong... the expression "pense bête" is mildly derogatory: towards oneself (as in you aren't capable of remembering yourself and need a reminder, so you are a bit of a dummy). That sort of thing. It's a French thing.



"Pense pas bête" means "Not a stupid reminder". The Tshirt is full of little sayings that like "Lettres nourish the soul, rectifying and consoling it". Stuff like that.



The picture of the fellow in the upper right hand corner is of Arthur Rimbaud, a French poet who influenced modern literature and, not surprisingly, died relatively young.

you rule jennwen. I was expecting to see the cactus etc. on this blog.

Not that I don't love the cactus.

"Utopie Desire Ame" = Utopia, desire, heart

"Dans un monde ideal l'humanite n'existerait" = In an ideal world, humanity would not exist.

I put all the translations in a blog, check it out

in " on a fait l'amour aveugle car il a de meillure yeux que nous" is it meant to be il n'y a? or not?

No.



"We made love while blind[folded] because it (ie. love) has better eyes than us."



Something like that.
