For Thierry Lhermitte, it’s all about discovery and quest: “There is no secrethe replied directly. It seems to me that it is knowing that love is not unconditional. Love is conditional, that’s my theory.” According to him, the more we grow, the more we must realize that love is ephemeral: “When one is small, one only knows the love of one’s parents. As a rule, it’s called unconditional love. And we learn in his first love stories that it is very conditional. So it’s negotiable and it’s temporary. It can last a lifetime but it can stop all the time. When we understood that it was conditional and temporary, we can live with that.”
Married for forty years to the same woman, Thierry Lhermitte has undoubtedly shared a tip that many will try to follow. From this union, which began in the 1970s, three children were born: Astrée, 48, Victor, 41 and Louise, 28. The family has also grown with the arrival of two grandchildren for Hélène and Thierry. A family happiness that is well worth the most splendid troops in the world.
