Cormac McCarthy
“You give up the world line by line. Stoically. And then one day you realize that your courage is farcical. It doesn't mean anything. You've become an accomplice in your own annihilation and there is nothing you can do about it. Everything you do closes a door somewhere ahead of you. And finally there is only one door left.”
Cormac McCarthy, The Sunset Limited

Cormac McCarthy
“Probably I dont believe in a lot of things that I used to believe in but that doesnt mean I dont believe in anything.”
Cormac McCarthy, The Sunset Limited

Cormac McCarthy
“I yearn for the darkness. I pray for death. Real death. If I thought that in death I would meet the people I've known in life I don't know what I'd do. That would be the ultimate horror. The ultimate despair. If I had to meet my mother again and start all of that all over, only this time without the prospect of death to look forward to? Well. That would be the final nightmare. Kafka on wheels.”
Cormac McCarthy, The Sunset Limited

Pentti Linkola
“I could never find two people who are perfectly equal: one will always be more valuable than the other. And many people, as a matter of fact, simply have no value.”
Pentti Linkola, Can Life Prevail?

Cormac McCarthy
“I got what I needed instead of what I wanted and that's just about the best kind of luck you can have.”
Cormac McCarthy, The Sunset Limited
