“Every individual is at once the beneficiary and the victim of the linguistic tradition into which
he has been born - the beneficiary inasmuch as language gives access to the accumulated records of
other people's experience, the victim in so far as it confirms him in the belief that reduced awareness is
the only awareness and as it bedevils his sense of reality, so that he is all too apt to take his concepts for
data, his words for actual things. That which, in the language of religion, is called "this world" is the
universe of reduced awareness, expressed, and, as it were, petrified by language.”
― Aldous Huxley, The Doors of Perception & Heaven and Hell

“I'm sure we all have dreams of leaving at some time in our lives, but when we reach the bottom, most of us go running home.”

“Pictures all around, of how good a life should be, a model for the rest, that bred insecurity, I walked a jagged line and then came back for more, it's always in my mind, an institution with no law.”
― Ian Curtis

“No one realized that, being left out in the cold, I was also very much in the dark.”
― Deborah Curtis, Touching from a Distance: Ian Curtis and Joy Division
