John Kennedy Toole
“...I doubt very seriously whether anyone will hire me.'

What do you mean, babe? You a fine boy with a good education.'

Employers sense in me a denial of their values.' He rolled over onto his back. 'They fear me. I suspect that they can see that I am forced to function in a century I loathe. This was true even when I worked for the New Orleans Public Library.”
John Kennedy Toole, A Confederacy of Dunces

Arthur Schopenhauer
“The art of not reading is a very important one. It consists in not taking an interest in whatever may be engaging the attention of the general public at any particular time. When some political or ecclesiastical pamphlet, or novel, or poem is making a great commotion, you should remember that he who writes for fools always finds a large public. A precondition for reading good books is not reading bad ones: for life is short.”
Arthur Schopenhauer, Essays and Aphorisms

Confucius
“Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves.”
Confucius

T.S. Eliot
“This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper.”
T.S. Eliot

Charles Bukowski
“People with no morals often considered themselves more free, but mostly they lacked the ability to feel or love.”
Charles Bukowski, Women
