Stolen from quieter days when there was time to read

'The human being born to amnesia and heedlessness will have little in common with those chastened by precedent and memory and the desire to nurse the future into being
... IAN HARROW


Don't talk down to me.
Don't be polite to me.
Don't try to make me feel nice.
Don't relax.
I'll cut the smille off your face.
You think i don't know what's going on?
You think, i'm afraid to react.
The joke's on you.
I'm biding my time, looking for the spot.
You think no one can reach you,
no one can have what you have.
I've been planning while you're playing.
I've been saving while you're spending.
The game is almost over
So it's time to acknowledge me.
Do you want to fall not ever knowing who took you?
... JENNY HOLZER (INFLAMMATORY ESSAYS)


Life is not a series of events that can be coldly calculated, with levels of achievement that deliver you to a final height where you 'win'. It cannot be paused or have the channel changed for something better. There is nothing better than to live a life, to see the world without the vertical lines cast from the TV screen, to be a part of the grand scheme of things.
... ERICA WILLIAMS


A SINGLE EVENT CAN HAVE INFINITELY MANY INTERPRETATIONS

ACTION CAUSES MORE TROUBLE THAN THOUGHT

CALM IS MORE CONDUCIVE TO CREATIVITY THAN IS ANXIETY

CATEGORIZING FEAR IS CALMING

DECENCY IS A RELATIVE THING

HABITUAL CONTEMPT DOES NOT REFLECT A FINER SENSIBILITY



You should limit the number of times you act against your nature, like sleeping with people you hate. It's interesting to test your capabilities for a while but too much will cause damage.
