This is especially true where the population is young, idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished; where entertainment—movies, theater, music—is policed or absent altogether; and where young men are set apart from the consoling and socializing presence of women.”
― Lawrence Wright, The Looming Tower

“The circle of an empty day is brutal and at night it tightens around your neck like a noose.”

“Give a man a reputation as an early riser and he can sleep 'til noon.”
― Mark Twain
