"As stated before, this is the single worst thing I have ever read in my life. Little more than the privileged rantings of a hateful, bigoted author trying oh so desperately to be "hardcore," and "real." Every copy of this, including the audio files I am listening to, should be thrown into a fucking river." Jul 17, 2026 05:01PM

“every man is tabernacled in every other, and he in exchange and so on in an endless complexity of being and witness to the uttermost edge of the world.”
Cormac McCarthy

F. Scott Fitzgerald
“Let me tell you about the very rich. They are different from you and me. They possess and enjoy early, and it does something to them, makes them soft where we are hard, and cynical where we are trustful, in a way that, unless you were born rich, it is very difficult to understand. They think, deep in their hearts, that they are better than we are because we had to discover the compensations and refuges of life for ourselves. Even when they enter deep into our world or sink below us, they still think that they are better than we
are. They are different. ”
F. Scott Fitzgerald
