“We are all alone, born alone, die alone, and—in spite of True Romance magazines—we shall all someday look back on our lives and see that, in spite of our company, we were alone the whole way.

This is what makes your self-respect so important, and I don't see how you can respect yourself if you must look in the hearts and minds of others for your happiness.”

“Ultimate horror often paralyses memory in a merciful way.”

“If you're going to be crazy, you have to get paid for it or else you're going to be locked up.”

“I was not proud of what I had learned but I never doubted that it was worth knowing.”
