“We have art in order not to die of the truth.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche

“Our arrogance as a species is only a few degrees away from us claiming that we invented, not discovered, fire.”
― Mokokoma Mokhonoana

“The stupidity of people comes from having an answer for everything. The wisdom of the novel comes from having a question for everything. When Don Quixote went out into the world, that world turned into a mystery before his eyes. That is the legacy of the first European novel to the entire subsequent history of the novel. The novelist teaches the reader to comprehend the world as a question. There is wisdom and tolerance in that attitude. In a world built on sacrosanct certainties the novel is dead. The totalitarian world, whether founded on Marx, Islam, or anything else, is a world of answers rather than questions. There, the novel has no place.”
― Milan Kundera, The Book of Laughter and Forgetting

“My ambition is handicapped by laziness”
― Charles Bukowski, Factotum
