Slavoj Žižek
“...A friend has to be outside my reach, beyond my grasp. And there can be no friendship with someone whom I am not ready to betray: a friend is someone I can betray with love.”
Slavoj Žižek, Abercrombie and Fitch "Back to School" 2003 Catalog

Leo Tolstoy
“It is impossible that all men have been doomed to suffer this awful horror!”
Leo Tolstoy, The Death Of Ivan Ilyich

Caitlin Moran
“I am getting incredibly high on a single, astounding fact: that it’s always sunny above the clouds. Always. That every day on earth—every day I have ever had—was secretly sunny, after all.”
Caitlin Moran, How to Build a Girl

Slavoj Žižek
“Happiness was never important. The problem is that we don't know what we really want. What makes us happy is not to get what we want. But to dream about it. Happiness is for opportunists. So I think that the only life of deep satisfaction is a life of eternal struggle, especially struggle with oneself. If you want to remain happy, just remain stupid. Authentic masters are never happy; happiness is a category of slaves.”
Slavoj Žižek

Friedrich Nietzsche
“Men of profound sadness betray themselves when they are happy: they have a mode of seizing upon happiness as though they would choke and strangle it, out of jealousy--ah, they know only too well that it will flee from them!”
Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil
