She knew that she belonged to this man, body and soul. Every trace of shame departed; it was burnt out by the fire that consumed her. She gave him a thousand opportunities; she fought to turn his words to serious things. He baffled her with his shallow smile and ready tongue, that twisted all topics to triviality. By six o'clock she was morally on her knees before him; she was imploring him to stay to dinner with her. He refused. Aleister Crowley
Samuel Beckett once said, "Every word is like an unnecessary stain on silence and nothingness."...On the other hand, he SAID it. Art Spiegelman

this is just like life must be for about 99 percent of the people in the world. You're in this place. There's other people all around you, but they don't understand you and you don't understand them, but people do a lot of pointless babbling anyway. In order to stay alive, you have to spend all day every day doing stupid meaningless work. And the only way to get out of it is to quit, cut loose, take a flyer, and go off into the wicked world, where you will be swallowed up and never heard from... Neal Stephenson

It is a law of nature that every decent man on earth is bound to be a coward and a slave Fyodor Dostoevsky
It would seem that something which means poverty, disorder, and violence every single day should be avoided entirely, but the desire to beget children is a natural urge. Phyllis Diller
John Berger quote: "If every event which occurred could be given a name, there..."
If every event which occurred could be given a name, there would be no need for stories. John Berger
Virtue - to be good and just -Every heart, when sifted well, Is a clot of warmer dust, Mix'd with cunning sparks of hell.- The Vision of Sin Alfred Lord Tennyson

More than this, they were right in the fact that the plastic culture - modern man, the mechanistic worldview in university textbooks and in practice, the total threat of the machine, the establishment technology, the bourgeois upper middle class - is poor in its sensitivity to nature... As a utopian group, the counterculture understands... Francis Schaeffer
I hope I know my own unworthiness, and that I hate and despise myself and all my fellow-creatures as every practicable Christian should. Charles Dickens
Christ did not die to forgive sinners who go on treasuring anything above seeing and savoring God. And people who would be happy in heaven if Christ were not there, will not be there. The gospel is not a way to get people to heaven; it is a way to get people to God. It's a way of overcoming every obstacle to everlasting joy in God. If we don't want God above all things, we have not been converted by the gospel. John Piper
