“If the giant deer, at suitable intervals, had broken off the outer spears of its antlers, it might have kept going for some while longer. Yet in fever and constant pain, indeed, in betrayal of its central idea, the core of its peculiarity, for it was vocated by creation’s hand to be the horn bearer of wild animals. What it gained in continuance, it would lose in significance, in grandness of life, in other words a continuance without hope, a march not up to affirmation, but forth across its ever recreated ruins, a self-destructive race against the sacred will of blood.”
― Peter Wessel Zapffe, The Last Messiah

“Character is not what people do, it is the things people do when they think no one is watching.”

“The weird thing is not wrong, after all: it is our conceptions that must be inadequate.”
― Mark Fisher, The Weird and the Eerie

“Let it be truth that lingers as the final perfume of this world.”
