“I am metaphysical being, mystical and emotional, skeptical and cynical, happy and boisterous, loud and bawdy, quiet and melancholy, tender and cruel, full of mirth and despair. Inherent inconsistences mark me as part of nature, which is neither cruel nor fair, or reliable or predictable.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

Gene Wolfe
“What went wrong? That is the question, and not "To be or not to be," for all of Shakespeare.”
Gene Wolfe

Percy Bysshe Shelley
“Sorrow, terror, anguish, despair itself are often the chosen expressions of an approximation to the highest good. Our sympathy in tragic fiction depends on this principle; tragedy delights by affording a shadow of the pleasure which exists in pain. This is the source also of the melancholy which is inseparable from the sweetest melody. The pleasure that is in sorrow is sweeter than the pleasure of pleasure itself.”
Percy Bysshe Shelley, A Defence of Poetry and Other Essays

Robert  Burton
“That which others hear or read of, I felt and practised myself; they get their knowledge by books, I mine by melancholizing.”
Robert Burton, The Anatomy of Melancholy
