“Above us, where the lights of the sky flared up and streaked in all directions, where the scale of stars and galaxies were beyond our comprehension, there was no sadness. And below us, where the ants went about their work late into the night, too small to even be considered by creatures many times their size, there was no sadness. It was only in the middle – between the immense and the minute – that sadness seemed to exist. A sadness we ignored by either looking up or looking down.”
― Alex Latimer, The Space Race

“But every time an artist dies young, Kurt Cobain or whatever, it's always the people -- "It's so sad, he had so much more to give." How do you know? Maybe he was out of shit. He got all the money, he did all the drugs, he fucked all your holes, and that's the American Dream. And when you're done with that, you go, "Oh, that's why they call it a dream. It's bullshit. I'm still empty.”

“I rarely end up where I was intending to go, but often I end up somewhere I needed to be.”
― Douglas Adams, The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul

“All that stuff, tradition and heritage. It's dead people's baggage. Quit carrying it.”
― Doug Stanhope
