Katherine Dunn
“The truth is always an insult or a joke, lies are generally tastier. We love them. The nature of lies is to please. Truth has no concern for anyone's comfort”
Katherine Dunn, Geek Love

Ryū Murakami
“Thanks to the imagination, there’s no end to things in this world that can trigger anxiety.”
Ryū Murakami, Piercing

“Decker smiled and shrugged off their laughter. The humour was only barbed if you sat on the outside, and now he was one of them.”
R.D. Ronald, The Zombie Room

Jim Thompson
“He was part of this river of cars, aiding its sluggish tide and in turn aided by it. Without losing his identity, free to turn out of the tide when he chose, he still belonged to something.”
Jim Thompson, The Grifters

William S. Burroughs
“I began to get a feeling familiar to me from my bartending days of being the only sane man in a nuthouse. It doesn't make you feel superior but depressed and scared, because there is nobody you can contact.”
William S. Burroughs, And the Hippos Were Boiled in Their Tanks
