Patricia De Martelaere
“Voor het geluk zijn we jammerlijk afhankelijk van onze medemensen - zij kunnen ons naar believen hun liefde en hun zorgen geven of onthouden; het ongeluk kunnen we onszelf altijd, naar eigen goeddunken en met het grootste gemak, toedienen.”
Patricia De Martelaere, Een verlangen naar ontroostbaarheid: Over leven, kunst en dood

Jeremy Atherton Lin
“We go out to be gay. We crave this when once again growing bored with the straight world”
Jeremy Atherton Lin, Gay Bar: Why We Went Out

Robert  Burton
“I am not poor, I am not rich; nihil est, nihil deest, I have little, I want nothing: all my treasure is in Minerva’s tower...I live still a collegiate student...and lead a monastic life, ipse mihi theatrum [sufficient entertainment to myself], sequestered from those tumults and troubles of the world...aulae vanitatem, fori ambitionem, ridere mecum soleo [I laugh to myself at the vanities of the court, the intrigues of public life], I laugh at all.”
Robert Burton, The Anatomy of Melancholy

Charles Bukowski
“Beauty is nothing, beauty won’t stay. You don’t know how lucky you are to be ugly, because if people like you, you know it’s for something else.”
Charles Bukowski, Tales of Ordinary Madness

Olivia Laing
“I don't believe the cure for loneliness is meeting someone, not necessarily. I think it's about two things: learning how to befriend yourself and understanding that many of the things that seem to afflict us as individuals are in fact a result of larger forces of stigma and exclusion, which can and should be resisted.”
Olivia Laing, The Lonely City: Adventures in the Art of Being Alone
