| Tumbling across West Africa on my travels, I got the bright idea to enhance my experience by consuming geographically related art, most notably through Nigerian films and literature. I'd recently finished reading Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe an ...more | |

Things Fall Apart (The African Trilogy, #1):
"“There is no story that is not true.”

| It's borderline embarrassing for Chinua Achebe to be your entry into African literature. This Nigerian author is frequently regarded as the most important from the continent, and the majority of this attention stems from his debut, Things Fall Apart. ...more | |

“If you’re spending your days on the couch watching TV whilst eating potato crisps and downing diet cola, you can’t reasonably wonder why you’re so depressed right now.”

“The ultimate blasphemy is neglecting the gift of thought that we have all been granted. Convictions are the biggest threat to knowledge. Do not be convinced by anything. When you make up your mind about something, every door closes. Exploring and questioning the outside and inside world is a service you must commit to and practice every day. Remaining neutral is the strongest superpower anyone can have. That is the Janthopoyism way.”

“There are fleeting visions of our ex having a wonderful time without us, laughing at how much we held them back whilst they mess around with multiple partners who are all far superior lovers than we ever were. Terrible thoughts. Painful. Wait, I have an idea! Let’s drown those horrific feelings in floods of booze and bury them beneath mountains of drugs immediately! That should show them! Yay! Of course, this is akin to shoving fistfuls of cotton wool into an open wound in hopes that it will stop the bleeding. It may work for a little while, but ultimately, you are going to end up with a severe infection, and you will die.”

“One of the most common variations of breakup advice is to get back on the horse. Another version is when unimaginative people inform you of how many fish there are in the sea. The problem with these so-called “insightful” consultations is that they are far too preoccupied with animals when we need to be looking at humans here.”
