Julian Barnes
“ You put together two people who have not been put together before. Sometimes it is like that first attempt to harness a hydrogen balloon to a fire balloon: do you prefer crash and burn, or burn and crash?
But sometimes it works, and something new is made, and the world is changed. Then, at some point, sooner or later, for this reason or that, one of them is taken away. and what is taken away is greater than the sum of what was there. this may not be mathematically possible; but it is emotionally possible.”
Julian Barnes, Levels of Life

William S. Burroughs

William S. Burroughs, Naked Lunch: The Restored Text

William S. Burroughs
“The study of thinking machines teaches us more about the brain than we can learn by introspective methods. Western man is externalizing himself in the form of gadgets.”
William S. Burroughs, Naked Lunch: The Restored Text

Julian Barnes
“Because love is the meeting point of truth and magic. Truth, as in photography; magic, as in ballooning.”
Julian Barnes, Levels of Life

László Krasznahorkai
“There is an intense relationship between proximate objects, a much weaker one between objects further away, and as for the really distant ones there is none at all, and that is the nature of God.”
László Krasznahorkai
