Thomas Bernhard
“Instead of committing suicide, people go to work.”
Thomas Bernhard, Correction

Antonin Artaud
“No one has ever written, painted, sculpted, modeled, built, or invented except literally to get out of hell.”
Antonin Artaud

Jean Baudrillard
“The futility of everything that comes to us from the media is the inescapable consequence of the absolute inability of that particular stage to remain silent. Music, commercial breaks, news flashes, adverts, news broadcasts, movies, presenters—there is no alternative but to fill the screen; otherwise there would be an irremediable void. We are back in the Byzantine situation, where idolatry calls on a plethora of images to conceal from itself the fact that God no longer exists. That's why the slightest technical hitch, the slightest slip on the part of a presenter becomes so exciting, for it reveals the depth of the emptiness squinting out at us through this little window.”
Jean Baudrillard, Cool Memories

Jorge Luis Borges
“I can give you my loneliness, my darkness, the hunger of my heart, I am trying to bribe you with uncertainty, with danger, with defeat.”
Jorge Luis Borges

Emil M. Cioran
“If we could truly see ourselves the way others see us we'd disappear on the spot.”
Émile Michel Cioran
