❝Every reader finds himself. The writer’s work is merely a kind of optical instrument that makes it possible for the reader to discern what, without this book, he would perhaps never have seen in himself.
❝I mean, I have the feeling that something in my mind is poisoning everything else.
❝I am not a snob; it is simply that I am not interested with what most people have to say, or what they want to do — mostly with my time.
❝the best often die by their own hand
just to get away,
and those left behind
can never quite understand
why anybody
would ever want to
get away

them
❝I was drawn to all the wrong things: I liked to drink, I was lazy, I didn’t have a god, politics, ideas, ideals. I was settled into nothingness; a kind of non-being, and I accepted it. I didn’t make for an interesting person. I didn’t want to be interesting, it was too hard. What I really wanted was only a soft, hazy space to live in, and to be left alone.
❝I hate most people, and I don’t want to. It’s an awful way to be, but the human race gives me no comfort. It’s repulsive, because one’s life consists of people, not things. Most people’s problem is having too many people in their life. With me it’s just the reverse.
sabbats: Mad Girl's Love Song
sabbats:
“I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead;
I lift my lids and all is born again.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
The stars go waltzing out in blue and red,
And arbitrary blackness gallops in:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I dreamed that you bewitched me into bed

Before sex, you help each other get undressed. After sex, you dress yourself. In life, no one helps you once you’re fucked. You must help yourself.
