Leonid Andreyev
“Look at us, Lazarus, and share our joy. Is there anything stronger than love?"

And Lazarus looked. And for the rest of their life they kept on loving each other, but their passion grew gloomy and joyless, like those funeral cypresses whose roots feed on the decay of the graves and whose black summits in a still evening hour seek in vain to reach the sky. Thrown by the unknown forces of life into each other's embraces, they mingled tears with kisses, voluptuous pleasures with pain, and they felt themselves doubly slaves, obedient slaves to life, and patient servants of the silent Nothingness. Ever united, ever severed, they blazed like sparks and like sparks lost themselves in the boundless Dark.”
Leonid Andreyev, Lazarus

Joseph Heller
“The Texan turned out to be good-natured, generous and likable. In three days no one could stand him.”
Joseph Heller, Catch-22

“When a man wants to have an alehouse meltdown, the worst thing you can do is stand in his way”
Luke Haines, Post Everything: Outsider Rock and Roll

Knut Hamsun
“Truth is neither ojectivity nor the balanced view; truth is a selfless subjectivity.”
Knut Hamsun, Hunger

Joris-Karl Huysmans
“Worshiping the Devil is no more insane than worshiping God...It is precisely at the moment when positivism is at its high-water mark that mysticism stirs into life and the follies of occultism begin.”
Joris-Karl Huysmans
