J.M. Coetzee
“When all else fails, philosophize.”
J.M. Coetzee, Disgrace

Blaise Cendrars
“Humanity lives in its fiction.”
Blaise Cendrars

Amelia Gray
“Why does the rain make us feel so romantic and strange? Maybe it's the fact that we are unnatural spectators of it, from inside our homes, and it is a reminder that we have the power to live our whole lives like this, if we choose. It's not the smell of fertile ground kicked up by raindrops, or the slick leaves, or the way we must amplify our voices to be heard over this larger presence. It's the power of the rooftop that makes us want to fuck under it.”
Amelia Gray, AM/PM

Hermann Hesse
“Times of terror and the deepest misery may arrive, but if there is to be any happiness in this misery it can only be a spiritual happiness, related to the past in the rescue of the culture of early ages and to the future in a serene and indefatigable championship of the spirit in a time which would otherwise completely swallow up the material.”
Hermann Hesse, The Glass Bead Game

Francesco Petrarca
“A short cut to riches is to subtract from our desires.”
Francesco Petrarch
