Douglas Coupland
“But then a bumblebee bumbled above us and it stole our attention the way flying things can.”
Douglas Coupland, Microserfs

Anaïs Nin
“The leaf fall of his words, the stained glass hues of his moods, the rust in his voice, the smoke in his mouth, his breath on my vision like human breath blinding a mirror.”
Anaïs Nin, House of Incest

Franz Kafka
“For we are like tree trunks in the snow. In appearance they lie smoothly and a little push should be enough to set them rolling. No, it can't be done, for they are firmly wedded to the ground. But see, even that is only appearance.”
Franz Kafka

Hunter S. Thompson
“I don't mean to say that I'm about to state my credo here on this page, but merely to affirm, sincerely for the first time in my life, my belief in man as an individual and independent entity. Certainly not independence in the everyday sense of the word, but pertaining to a freedom and mobility of thought that few people are able - or even have the courage - to achieve.”
Hunter S. Thompson, Kingdom of Fear: Loathsome Secrets of a Star-crossed Child in the Final Days of the American Century

Charles Bukowski
“People who believe in politics are like people who believe in God: they are sucking wind through bent straws.”
Charles Bukowski
