The Stand
by
“All of a sudden I feel as nervous as a longtail cat in a room fulla rockin chairs.”
“...throw roses into the abyss and say: 'here is my thanks to the monster who didn't succeed in swallowing me alive.”

“Be careful, lest in casting out your demon you exorcise the best thing in you.”

“Ultimately, it is the desire, not the desired, that we love.”

“It is my ambition to say in ten sentences what others say in a whole book.”

“What, if some day or night a demon were to steal after you into your loneliest loneliness and say to you: 'This life as you now live it and have lived it, you will have to live once more and innumerable times more' ...

Or have you once experienced a tremendous moment when you would have answered him: 'You are a god and never have I heard anything more divine.”
