I suppose it’s a comfort, perhaps a sense of self-control, doing worse damage to yourself than the world will ever dare inflict.
— Chuck Palahniuk (via michaelregan)
I have dreamt in my life, dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas; they have gone through and through me, like wine through water, and altered the color of my mind.
So we might as well confess agnostically and from the very start that we’re absolutely in the dark, and close this embarrassing parenthesis.
— Tommaso Landolfi, ‘The Two Old Maids’ (via panoramicchrestomathy)
