Alejandro Saint-Barthélemy
“He died the way he lived:
Expecting to finally start living.”
Alexander Akyna, Aloha Mahalo

Charles Bukowski
“now it’s computers and more computers
and soon everybody will have one,
3-year-olds will have computers
and everybody will know everything
about everybody else
long before they meet them.
nobody will want to meet anybody
else ever again
and everybody will be
a recluse
like I am now.”
Charles Bukowski, The Continual Condition: Poems

Norman Rush
“Literature is humanity talking to itself.”
Norman Rush

Friedrich Nietzsche
“A promise to love someone forever, then, means, 'As long as I love you I will render unto you the actions of love; if I no longer love you, you will continue to receive the same actions from me, if for other motives.' Thus the illusion remains in the minds of one's fellow men that the love is unchanged and still the same.”
Friedrich Nietzsche, Aphorisms on Love and Hate

Olivia Laing
“I don't believe the cure for loneliness is meeting someone, not necessarily. I think it's about two things: learning how to befriend yourself and understanding that many of the things that seem to afflict us as individuals are in fact a result of larger forces of stigma and exclusion, which can and should be resisted.”
Olivia Laing, The Lonely City: Adventures in the Art of Being Alone
