Russell Brand
“The priority of any addict is to anaesthetise the pain of living to ease the passage of day with some purchased relief.”
Russell Brand

Charles Bukowski
“We don’t even ask happiness, just a little less pain.”
Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski
“To experience real agony is something hard to write about, impossible to understand while it grips you; you're frightened out of your wits, can’t sit still, move, or even go decently insane.”
Charles Bukowski, The People Look Like Flowers at Last

Ned Vizzini
“I didn't want to wake up. I was having a much better time asleep. And that's really sad. It was almost like a reverse nightmare, like when you wake up from a nightmare you're so relieved. I woke up into a nightmare.”
Ned Vizzini, It's Kind of a Funny Story

Russell Brand
“Of all the consumer products, chewing gum is perhaps the most ridiculous: it literally has no nourishment – you just chew it to give yourself something to do with your stupid idiot Western mouth.

Half the world is starving, and the other’s going, ‘I don’t actually need any nutrition, but it would be good to masticate, just to keep my mind off things.”
Russell Brand, My Booky Wook
