    “Das Leben ist Krieg. Der Krieg hat uns alle leer gemenscht, kaputtgeKRIEGt.
    Das Leben ist kein Krieg, sondern Sehnsucht, irgendwas zwischen Verachtung und Liebe!
    Das Leben ist Krebs, er zieht Metastasenstraßen durch meinen Leib.
    Das Leben ist Konzentrationsamok, ein Garten rot blühender Neurosen.
    Und ich bin der Menschenkarton mit chemischem Inhalt.
    All das geschrien, während Genitalien sich duellieren ...”
    ― Dirk Bernemann, Ich hab die Unschuld kotzen sehen

    “I never touch sugar, cheese, bread...
    I only like what I'm allowed to like. I'm beyond temptation. There is no weakness. When I see tons of food in the studio, for us and for everybody, for me it's as if this stuff was made out of plastic. The idea doesn't even enter my mind that a human being could put that into their mouth. I'm like the animals in the forest. They don't touch what they cannot eat.”

    John Green
    “I wanted so badly to lie down next to her on the couch, to wrap my arms around her and sleep. Not fuck, like in those movies. Not even have sex. Just sleep together in the most innocent sense of the phrase. But I lacked the courage and she had a boyfriend and I was gawky and she was gorgeous and I was hopelessly boring and she was endlessly fascinating. So I walked back to my room and collapsed on the bottom bunk, thinking that if people were rain, I was drizzle and she was hurricane.”
