W.G. Sebald
“On every new thing there lies already the shadow of annihilation.”
W.G. Sebald, The Rings of Saturn

Walter Benjamin
“The equipment-free aspect of reality here has become the height of artifice; the sight of immediate reality has become an orchid in the land of technology.”
Walter Benjamin, Illuminations: Essays and Reflections

Mark Fisher
“Witness, for instance, the establishment of settled ‘alternative’ or ‘independent’ cultural zones, which endlessly repeat older gestures of rebellion and contestation as if for the first time. ‘Alternative’ and ‘independent’ don’t designate something outside mainstream culture; rather, they are styles, in fact the dominant styles, within the mainstream.”
Mark Fisher, Capitalist Realism: Is There No Alternative?

“For less than the cost of a Big Mac, fries and a Coke, you can buy a loaf of fresh bread and some good cheese or roast beef, which you will enjoy much more.”
Steve Albini

Samuel Beckett
“Incontinent the void. The zenith. Evening again. When not night it will be evening. Death again of deathless day. On one hand embers. On the other ashes. Day without end won and lost. Unseen.”
Samuel Beckett, Ill Seen Ill Said
