Vladimir Nabokov
“To be quite candid — and what I am going to say now is something I have never said before, and I hope that it provokes a salutary chill — I know more than I can express in words, and the little I can express would not have been expressed, had I not known more.”
Vladimir Nabokov, Strong Opinions

Thomas Bernhard
“It would be wrong to refuse to face the fact that everything is fundamentally sick and sad.”
Thomas Bernhard, Gargoyles

“If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.”
Gospel of Thomas

Samuel Johnson
“I never desire to converse with a man who has written more than he has read.”
Samuel Johnson, Johnsonian Miscellanies - Vol II

Anna Kavan
“I know I've got a death wish. I've never enjoyed my life, I've never liked people. I love the mountains because they are the negation of life, indestructible, inhuman, untouchable, indifferent, as I want to be.”
Anna Kavan, Julia and the Bazooka and Other Stories
