Pier Paolo Pasolini
“If you know that I am an unbeliever, then you know me better than I do myself. I may be an unbeliever, but I am an unbeliever who has a nostalgia for a belief.”
Pier Paolo Pasolini

David Foster Wallace
“Fiction’s about what it is to be a fucking human being.”
David Foster Wallace

Susan Sontag
“Attention is vitality. It connects you with others. It makes you eager. Stay eager.”
Susan Sontag

Georges Bataille
“I believe that truth has only one face: that of a violent contradiction.”
Georges Bataille, Violent Silence: Celebrating Georges Bataille

David Foster Wallace
“The fraudulence paradox was that the more time and effort you put into trying to appear impressive or attractive to other people, the less impressive or attractive you felt inside -- you were a fraud. And the more of a fraud you felt like, the harder you tried to convey an impressive or likable image of yourself so that other people wouldn't find out what a hollow, fraudulent person you really were.”
David Foster Wallace, Oblivion
