“So what? Let him talk, this Mitrich with the runny eyes. We must honor, I repeat, the dark reaches of another's soul. We must look intro them even if there's nothing there, even if there's only trash there. It's all one; look and honor it, look and don't spit on it.”

“Missing you,
I missed a part of me
I shared with you
that’s now gone.
Missing you,
when really,
it was the way you made me feel
and the things you made us do.
Missing you
I shouldn’t be.
But I can’t help missing
who I was with you.
Missing you,
I missed
and missed so much of the world
and wasn’t even missed in return.”

“Everything should take place slowly and incorrectly so that man doesn't get a chance to start feeling proud, so that man is sad and perplexed.”

“I've always been in two minds about women, really. On the one hand, I always liked the fact they had waists, and we hadn't. That aroused in me a feeling of - how shall I put it? - well, pleasure. Yes, pleasurable feelings. Still, on the other hand, they did stab Marat with a penknife, and Marat was Incorruptible, so they shouldn't have stabbed him. That fairly killed off the pleasure. Then again, like Karl Marx, I've always loved women for their little weaknesses - i.e. they've got to sit down to pee, and I've always liked that - that's always filled me with - well, what the hell - a sort of warm feeling. Yes, pleasurable warmth. But then again they did shoot at Lenin, with a revolver no less! And that put a damper on the pleasure as well. I mean, fair enough, sitting down to pee, but shooting at Lenin? That's a sick joke, talking about pleasure after that.
However, I digress.”
