“Is man merely a mistake of God's? Or God merely a mistake of man?”
― Friedrich Nietzsche

“It is a fool's prerogative to utter truths that no one else will speak.”
― Neil Gaiman

“One thing I could never stand was to see a filthy dirty old drunky howling away at the filthy songs of his fathers and going blurp blurp in between as it might be a filthy old orchestra in his stinking rotten guts;I could never stand to see anyone like that. whatever his age might be, but more especially when he was real old like this one was.”
― Anthony Burgess, A Clockwork Orange

“Don’t mourn your luck that’s failing now,
work gone wrong, your plans
all proving deceptive — don’t mourn them uselessly.
As one long prepared, and graced with courage,
say goodbye to her, the Alexandria that is leaving.
Above all, don’t fool yourself, don’t say
it was a dream, your ears deceived you:
don’t degrade yourself with empty hopes like these.”
― Constantine P. Cavafy/Κωνσταντίνος Π. Καβάφης
