Citat

  • Sheen Mahomedhar citeratför 4 år sedan
    we have a bad habit, encouraged by pedants and sophisticates, of considering happiness as something rather stupid. Only pain is intellectual, only evil interesting. This is the treason of the artist: a refusal to admit the banality of evil and the terrible boredom of pain.

    letter sent me a couple of years ago by a young reader, who wrote:
    The city of happiness, well, we all live there and people go about their business with full knowledge of the child in the closet.
    And then at times I refuse to believe we are in the city of happiness and that instead we are all ones who walked away. Until I read in the news that a man was waterboarded 103 times in one month. Then I think we are all in the closet. Too stupid to understand what life we could have outside the walls around us
  • Aurora Marcelinhar citeratför 3 år sedan
    But to praise despair is to condemn delight, to embrace violence is to lose hold of everything else.
