“All those years he suffered, those were the best years of his life because they made him who he was.”
—Little Miss Sunshine (via savethekisses) (via quote-book)
“There’s nothing to mourn about death any more than there is to mourn about the growing of a flower. What is terrible is not death but the lives people live or don’t live up until their death. They don’t honor their own lives, they piss on their lives. They shit them away. Dumb fuckers. They concentrate too much on fucking, movies, money, family, fucking. Their minds are full of cotton. They swallow God without thinking, they swallow country without thinking. Soon they forget how to think, they let others think for them. Their brains are stuffed with cotton. They look ugly, they talk ugly, they walk ugly. Play them the great music of the centuries and they can’t hear it. Most people’s deaths are a sham. There’s nothing left to die.”
—Charles Bukowski (via eelesa)
“Just because some of us can read and write and do a little math, that doesn’t mean we deserve to conquer the Universe.”
—Kurt Vonnegut
“You know, the truth can be really powerful stuff. You’re not expecting it.”
—Kurt Vonnegut
“We’re not too young for love, just too young for about everything there is that goes with love.”
—Kurt Vonnegut
