Henry Miller
“We must die as egos and be born again in the swarm, not separate and self-hypnotized, but individual and related.”
Henry Miller, Sexus

Gene Wolfe
“I am deserving of no gifts."

"That is so. But you must recall, Severian, that when a gift is deserved, it is not a gift but payment.”
Gene Wolfe, The Shadow of the Torturer

Stephen Fry
“It’s the strangest thing about this church - it is obsessed with sex, absolutely obsessed. Now, they will say we, with our permissive society and rude jokes, are obsessed. No. We have a healthy attitude. We like it, it’s fun, it’s jolly; because it’s a primary impulse it can be dangerous and dark and difficult.
It’s a bit like food in that respect, only even more exciting. The only people who are obsessed with food are anorexics and the morbidly obese, and that in erotic terms is the Catholic Church in a nutshell.”
Stephen Fry

Slavoj Žižek
“Happiness was never important. The problem is that we don't know what we really want. What makes us happy is not to get what we want. But to dream about it. Happiness is for opportunists. So I think that the only life of deep satisfaction is a life of eternal struggle, especially struggle with oneself. If you want to remain happy, just remain stupid. Authentic masters are never happy; happiness is a category of slaves.”
Slavoj Žižek

Gabor Maté
“I needed to write, to express myself through written language not only so that others might hear me but so that I could hear myself.”
Gabor Maté, In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction
