Quentin Crisp
“It is not the simple statement of facts that ushers in freedom; it is the constant repetition of them that has this liberating effect. Tolerance is the result not of enlightenment, but of boredom.”
Quentin Crisp

Quentin Crisp
“If love means anything at all it means extending your hand to the unlovable.”
Quentin Crisp

Quentin Crisp
“I think I can say that effeminate homosexuals are among those who indulge least in sex acts with other boys at school. They seem to realize that these jolly get-togethers are really only a pooling of the carnal feelings of two people who deep down are interested in their dreams of girls. Otherwise they tend to be self-congratulatory pyrotechnical displays of potency.”
Quentin Crisp, The Naked Civil Servant

Ágota Kristóf
“Seen nothing? Idiot! We have all the work and all the worry: children to feed, wounds to tend. Once the war is over, you men are all heroes. The dead: heroes. The survivors: heroes. The maimed: heroes. That’s why you invented war. It’s your war. You wanted it, so get on with it – heroes, my ass!”
Ágota Kristóf, The Notebook, The Proof, The Third Lie: Three Novels

Quentin Crisp
“It was not so much that I longed for death as that I didn't long for life.”
Quentin Crisp, The Naked Civil Servant
