"Ik heb de Toverberg uit! Ik heb het tot mij genomen in de vorm van het Engelstalige luisterboek (in het Nederlands is dat er volgens mij niet). Het was mijn inslaapboek, ik heb er dan ook meer dan twee maanden over gedaan. Ik had jarenlang de Nederla"

"Toen ik halverwege de bundel was, dacht ik dat dit de beste oorspronkelijk Nederlandstalige verhalenbundel ging zijn die ik had gelezen sinds ik het oeuvre van Hermine de Graaf tot me nam. Vooral het verhaal Brand deed me ook sterk aan de verhalen va"

“I'm going to make the obvious point that maybe the word neurotic means the condition of being highly conscious and developed. The essence of neurosis is conflict. But the essence of living now, fully, not blocking off to what goes on, is conflict. In fact I've reached the stage where I look at people and say - he or she, they are whole at all because they've chosen to block off at this stage or that. People stay sane by blocking off, by limiting themselves.”

“After 50 years of television, there’s no other conclusion the aliens could draw, but that most humans are neurotic, death-hungry, dysfunctional idiots.”

“Much of what we call personality is not a fixed set of traits, only coping mechanisms a person acquired in childhood.”

“All my adult life I have kept a distance from other people, it has been my way of coping, because I become so incredibly close to others in my thoughts and feelings of course, they only have to look away dismissively for a storm to break inside me.”
