“We declare that the splendor of the world has been enriched by a new beauty: the beauty of speed. A racing automobile with its bonnet adorned with great tubes like serpents with explosive breath...a roaring motor car which seems to run on machine-gun fire, is more beautiful than the Victory of Samothrace.”
― F. T. Marinetti

“Our poetry is courage, audacity and revolt.”

“They are not weak because they are fat. They are fat because
they are weak and they cannot change. The potential for the body
to change is always there, but not for the spirit. So no excuses of
being strong and beautiful on the inside either. And obviously no
such thing as healthy fat bodies. So it’s pointless to try and tell these
shits that they can lose weight, and any promise that “anyone can
get fit” is egalitarian bullshit – any body can get fit, but not
every self is strong enough to be in charge of their body and reject
its urges and desires. The line between the body being just an animal
or a tool is determined exclusively by the true strength of the spirit
shackled within that body.”
― Alexander Slavros, Invalid Book

“People are like books, and the world is like a library. Some believe that it is important to be known with the most possible people, and have what we call superficial relationships with mass amounts of people. If you go in a library it's not important to see the cover of the most possible books, what you will learn if to get out a pair of interesting books and take a good amount of time to read them. Those who want to know the most possible only see the cover of many books, maybe they get as far as a few pages through the books, but they never get to read some of them. So there is actually no point in finding the books in the 1st place.”
― Varg Vikernes
