This world was created from God's fear of solitude.

In other words, 

us, the creatures, 

have no other meaning 

but to distract the Creator. 

Poor clowns of the absolute, 

we forget that we live dramas 

for the boredom of a spectator, 

whose claps have never reached 

the ears of a mortal.

 

Emil Cioran

“This is where we are at right now, as a whole.

No one is left out of the loop. 

We are experiencing a reality based on 

a thin veneer of lies and illusions. 

A world where greed is our God 

and wisdom is sin, 

where division is key 

and unity is fantasy, 

where the ego-driven cleverness of the mind is praised, 

rather than the intelligence of the heart.”
 

― Bill Hicks

“When I look back on my past

and think how much time I wasted on nothing, how much time has been lost in futilities, errors, laziness, incapacity to live; how little I appreciated it, how many times I sinned against my heart and soul — then my heart bleeds. Life is a gift, life is happiness, every minute can be an eternity of happiness!”

 ― Fyodor Dostoyevsky

 

 

“...all human beings are narrow,

blind, petty, stuck in the present. Our problem is narrowness of vision. The poet is a man whose vision sometimes expands beyond the usual human limit, and is startled by how enormous and beautiful the universe is. It is the one thing that all poets have in common, even the pessimistic ones...”

~ Colin Wilson

 

“Life is an experimental journey

undertaken involuntarily. 

It is a journey of the spirit 

through the material world and, 

since it is the spirit that travels, 

it is the spirit that is experienced. 

That is why there exist contemplative souls 

who have lived more intensely, 

more widely, more tumultuously 

than others who have lived their lives 

purely externally.”

― Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet
