Voltaire
“If there’s life on other planets, then the earth is the Universe’s insane asylum.”
Voltaire

Robinson Jeffers
“Never blame the man: his hard-pressed
Ancestors formed him: the other anthropoid apes were safe
In the great southern rain-forest and hardly changed
In a million years: but the race of man was made
By shock and agony…
… a wound was made in the brain
When life became too hard, and has never healed.
It is there that they learned trembling religion and blood-
sacrifice,
It is there that they learned to butcher beasts and to slaughter
men,
And hate the world.”
Robinson Jeffers

Neal Cassady
“We are actually fourth dimensional beings in a third dimensional body inhabiting a second dimensional world!”
Neal Cassady

Edna O'Brien
“That is the mystery about writing: it comes out of afflictions, out of the gouged times, when the heart is cut open.”
Edna O'Brien, Country Girl

Walter  Scott
“Revenge, the sweetest morsel to the mouth that ever was cooked in hell.”
Walter Scott, The Heart of Mid-Lothian
