Ears

It is only natural that sounds are more offensive to us than pictures: we can always close our eyes, or turn our heads off, but – our ears are always open.

Courage

People drink/do drugs because they don’t have the courage/willpower necessary to face life. Everything else is a lie.

Pain

Pain can be only understood if you experience it, and feel it. This goes for everything else.

Pain

Pain could be only eliminated with a new, stronger, pain.

Proof

Yet another proof that stupidity is universal: chances are much greater that smart people would say something stupid, than that stupid ones would say something smart!

Progress

A measure of human progress – compared to animals – is that, at least, we are not eating each other anymore. The next step, to stop killing each other, was never achieved.

Nature

When watching TV programs about Nature, I can’t escape feeling that Nature is a collection of living creatures that are mostly devouring each other.

So nice!

The girl (I thought) that I was dating recently, admitted that in a meantime she was fucking the other man! And I was being so nice, haven’t even touched her! Being nice is sooooooo overrated!

Government

(There’s) no such thing as a government that’s willing (or able) to realize even the smallest one of its pre-election promises.

Certainly, you saw Independence Day? Here’s a quote from it, by U.S. President, talking about aliens: “They’re like locusts. They’re moving from planet to planet… their whole civilization. After they’ve consumed every natural resource they move on…”. Now, replace aliens with Americans, and the galaxy with planet Earth… and you’ll get the current geo-political situation on our planet.
