“I don’t understand why we must do things in this world, why we must have friends and aspirations, hopes and dreams. Wouldn’t it be better to retreat to a faraway corner of the world, where all its noise and complications would be heard no more?

― Emil Cioran, On the Heights of Despair

“I'll never be happy, how can you love me, I'm awful, I'm covered with spiders, I'm doomed.”
― Iris Murdoch, The Message to the Planet

“Friends and enemies were the same people, just time and context told you who was who at any given moment.”
― Bert-Oliver Boehmer, Three Immortals

“We have lost, being born, as much as we shall lose dying: Everything!”
