William S. Burroughs
“Love is a haunting melody that I have never mastered, and I fear I never will.”
William S. Burroughs

Malcolm X
“America needs to understand Islam, because this is the one religion that erases from its society the race problem. Throughout my travels in the Muslim world, I have met, talked to, and even eaten with people who in America would have been considered white, but the white attitude was removed from their minds by the religion of Islam. I have never before seen sincere and true brotherhood practiced by all together, irrespective of their color.”
Malcolm X

Charles Bukowski
“It wasn’t my day. My week. My month. My year. My life. God damn it.”
Charles Bukowski, Pulp: Charles Bukowski's Final Hardboiled Noir Comedy – Lady Death, Aliens, and the Absurd

Albert Camus
“Those who lack the courage will always find a philosophy to justify it.”
Albert Camus

Malcolm X
“This was my first lesson about gambling: if you see somebody winning all the time, he isn't gambling, he's cheating. Later on in life, if I were continuously losing in any gambling situation, I would watch very closely.”
Malcolm X, The Autobiography of Malcolm X
