“Anything can happen in life, especially nothing.”
― Michel Houellebecq, Platform

“Seriously, I think it is a grave fault in life that so much time is wasted in social matters, because it not only takes up time when you might be doing individual private things, but it prevents you storing up the psychic energy that can then be released to create art or whatever it is. It's terrible the way we scotch silence & solitude at every turn, quite suicidal. I can't see how to avoid it, without being very rich or very unpopular, & it does worry me, for time is slipping by , and nothing is done. It isn't as if anything was gained by this social frivolity, It isn't: it's just a waste.”
― Philip Larkin, Philip Larkin: Letters to Monica

“Since the majority of me
Rejects the majority of you,
Debating ends forthwith, and we
Divide.”
― Philip Larkin

“Everyone should be forcibly transplanted to another continent from their family at the age of three.”
