Fyodor Dostoevsky
“It is better to be unhappy and know the worst, than to be happy in a fool's paradise.”
Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Idiot

“I'm tired of this Earth,these people. I'm tired of being caught in the tangle of their lives”
Dr. Manhattan (Watchmen Book)

John  Williams
“Lust and learning,” Katherine once said. “That’s really all there is, isn’t it?”
John Williams, Stoner

Jean-Paul Sartre
“There is no reality except in action. Man is nothing else than his plan; he exists only to the extent that he fulfills himself; he is therefore nothing else than the ensemble of his acts, nothing else than his life.”
Jean-Paul Sartre, Existentialism is a Humanism

Louis-Ferdinand Céline
“Travel is useful, it exercises the imagination. All the rest is disappointment and fatigue. Our journey is entirely imaginary. That is its strength.
It goes from life to death. People, animals, cities, things, all are imagined. It's a novel, just a fictitious narrative. Littre says so and he's never wrong.
And besides, in the first place, anyone can do as much. You just have to close your eyes.
It's on the other side of life.”
Louis-Ferdinand Céline, Journey to the End of the Night
