Eve: All this riot and uproar, V... is this Anarchy? Is this the Land of Do-As-You-Please?

V: No. This is only the land of take-what-you-want. Anarchy means "without leaders", not "without order". With anarchy comes an age or ordnung, of true order, which is to say voluntary order... this age of ordung will begin when the mad and incoherent cycle of verwirrung that these bulletins reveal has run its course... This is not anarchy, Eve. This is chaos.”
Alan Moore, V for Vendetta

Erik Pevernagie
“Relationships may become wrecked by a quirky syndrome: the “Ain't broke, don't fix”-syndrome. When there is no interaction in the neural network and no breakthrough into the mind but only a shallow skin experience, living together might be very torturous. If a heartfelt bond has not been molded, nothing can be broken and thus nothing needs to be fixed. (“I wonder what went wrong.”)”
Erik Pevernagie

“Swamp Thing, in Hell: "Demon...How...could God...allow such a place?

Etrigan: Think you God built this place, wishing man ill and not lusts uncontrolled or swords unsheathed?

Not God, my friend. The truth's more hideous still: These halls were carved by men while yet they breathed.

God is no parent or policeman grim dispensing treats or punishments to all.

Each soul climbs or descends by its own whim. He mourns, but He cannot prevent their fall.

We suffer as we choose. Nothing's amiss. All torments are deserved...”
Alan Moore

terrible things. If you give them a medal, then you don’t ever have to ask why
the terrible thing happened in the first place. Or try to fix it.”

“To most teenagers, college kids, and addicts, the fact that I was getting paid to party was pretty badass. The fact that I always knew where the party was, and people were always calling me for their fix, made others want to be around me. I carried myself confidently and got a lot of girls (regardless of what I felt like on the inside). I was fun and funny and therefore got invited to a lot of things.”

Lord Uzih
