Emil M. Cioran
“Write books only if you are going to say in them the things you would never dare confide to anyone.”
Emil Cioran

Osamu Dazai
“Then what's a synonym for woman?"
"Entrails."
"You're not very poetic, are you? Well, then, what's the antonym for entrails?"
"Milk.”
Osamu Dazai, No Longer Human

Arthur Nersesian
“As the components of your life are stripped away, after all the ambitions and hopes vaporize, you reach a self-reflective starkness-- the repetitious plucking of a single overwound string.”
Arthur Nersesian , The Fuck-Up

Emil M. Cioran
“If I were to be totally sincere, I would say that I do not know why I live and why I do not stop living. The answer probably lies in the irrational character of life which maintains itself without reason.”
Emil Cioran, On the Heights of Despair

Osamu Dazai
“I soon came to understand that drink, tobacco and prostitutes were all great means if dissipating (even for a few moments) my dread for human beings. I came even to feel that if I had to sell every last possession to obtain these means of escape, it would be well worth it.”
Osamu Dazai, No Longer Human
