"I feel like, in the span of time it's taken me to read twenty more pages, I've become at least twice as opinionated on how unshakable in my style of writing I am." — Jun 24, 2025 12:12PM

“The two men see pornographic pictures. Strangely coiled naked bodies, performing unchaste acts in groups, in hopeless configurations.”

“a man who is well brought-up may read anything. The only people who boggle at what is perfectly natural are those who are the worst swine and the finest experts in filth. In their utterly contemptible pseudo-morality they ignore the contents and madly attack individual words.”

“Much worse is to be paralyzed by fear of failure. Society tends to evaluate us based solely on visible results. At times, I even sense an air of intolerance toward failure. No one wants to be branded as a failure. We hear adults belittle kids, saying they have no talent and so should give up and face reality, or that they'll fail no matter what, so they might as well not even try. Who wouldn't second-guess themselves if told something like that?”

“Taking a close look at - at what's around us there - there is some sort of a harmony. It is the harmony of... overwhelming and collective murder. And we in comparison to the articulate vileness and baseness and obscenity of all this jungle - Uh, we in comparison to that enormous articulation - we only sound and look like badly pronounced and half-finished sentences out of a stupid suburban... novel... a cheap novel. We have to become humble in front of this overwhelming misery and overwhelming fornication... overwhelming growth and overwhelming lack of order. Even the - the stars up here in the - in the sky look like a mess. There is no harmony in the universe. We have to get acquainted to this idea that there is no real harmony as we have conceived it. But when I say this, I say this all full of admiration for the jungle. It is not that I hate it, I love it. I love it very much. But I love it against my better judgment.”
