🇨🇭 Remarque Day

Today, on the birthday of Erich Maria Remarque, I’d like to introduce a word I’ve been carrying around for years:

Remarqueable.

At first glance, it may look like a simple play on the word remarkable. But for me, it has always meant something more.

A Remarqueable person builds bridges rather than walls.

A Remarqueable place encourages dialogue, understanding, culture, and human connection.

A Remarqueable act leaves the world a little kinder, wiser, and more compassionate than it was before.

Inspired by the life and legacy of Erich Maria Remarque, the word reflects values that feel increasingly important today: humanity over ideology, conversation over conflict, and peace over division.

My hope is that one day we may use the term to recognize people, organizations, communities, and initiatives that embody those ideals.

In that sense, being Remarqueable is not about fame.

It is about making a difference.

Happy Remarque Day.
