• "Why do you look so sad? Because you speak to me in words and I look at you with feelings." - Pierrot Le Fou
• “The tale begins with the shattering of a magical mirror, its pieces spreading over the world. When a shard enters a person’s eye, they only see the negative aspects of things. When it enters someone’s heart, it turns to ice. The symptoms of depression are eerily similar, including irritability, negative thoughts and perhaps even worse, numbness.”
• "Human relationships didn’t work anyhow. Only the first two weeks had any zing, then the participants lost their interest. Masks dropped away and real people began to appear: cranks, imbeciles, the demented, the vengeful, sadists, killers. Modern society had created its own kind and they feasted on each other. It was a duel to the death—in a cesspool." -Charles Bukowski
• "The fall of humanity was the fall from the actual to the symbolic. Language abstracts us from the real world; keeping us from direct, intuitive perception. Words, like the ego, are merely guides. Don’t mistake them for the real thing. Pull aside the filthy curtains of the social. Language makes an enigma of simple existence; it obscures the true nature of reality and of your self. -Tony Vigorito.
• “From my rotting body, flowers shall grow and I am in them and that is eternity.” -Edvard Munch
• "We’re all water from different rivers,

That’s why it’s so easy to meet, We’re all water in this vast, vast ocean, Someday we’ll evaporate together."-Yoko Ono

• "the area dividing the brain and the soul

is affected in many ways by experience— some lose all mind and become soul: insane. some lose all soul and become mind: intellectual. some lose both and become: accepted." -Charles Bukowski
