Philipp Mainländer
“But at the bottom, the immanent philosopher sees in the entire universe only the deepest longing for absolute annihilation, and it is as if he clearly hears the call that permeates all spheres of heaven: Redemption! Redemption! Death to our life! and the comforting answer: you will all find annihilation and be redeemed!”
Philipp Mainländer, Die Philosophie der Erlösung

“To many, the meaning of life—or lack thereof—is not even an issue. Their meaning is prescribed by the religions to which they subscribe, or one of the secular worldviews they choose for themselves... They have a way of living imposed upon them and seem to be content with a problematic world insofar as it has answers. The destiny of those who think for themselves, on the other hand, is wholly different—usually dramatic.”
Selim Güre, The Occult of the Unborn

“People refuse to believe that they live in a dystopic system until it collapses on them.”
Selim Güre, The Occult of the Unborn

“Those who have been pulled out of the calm tranquility of the void and trapped for life to a bodily existence have a single consolation: everything that lives, also dies. Sooner or later, the tragedy will be forever over. Every life is destined to return to the sweet nothing from which it emerged without its consent. This is our consolation.”
Selim Güre, The Occult of the Unborn

Ingmar Bergman
“It is my opinion that art lost its basic creative drive the moment it was separated from worship. It severed an umbilical cord and now lives its own sterile life, genetaring and degenerating itself.”
Ingmar Bergman
