Biomy life is a revolving door in an elevator world.
*********************************************************************************************
"Imagine a state of perfect immunity, a charmed existence, a life of absolute security in the midst of poison bacilli. Nothing touches me, neither earthquakes nor explosions nor riots nor famine nor collisions nor wars nor revolutions. I am inoculated against every disease, every calamity, every sorrow and misery. It’s the culmination of a life of fortitude. Seated at my little niche all the poisons which the world gives off each day pass through my hands. Not even a fingernail gets stained. I am absolutely immune. I am even better off than a laboratory attendant, because there are no bad odors here, just the smell of lead burning. The world can blow up – I’ll be here just the same to put in a comma or a semicolon. I may even touch a little over-time, for with an event like that there’s bound to be a final extra. When the world blows up and the final edition has gone to press the proofreaders will quietly gather up all commas, semicolons, hyphens, asterisks, brackets, parentheses, periods, exclamation marks, etc." - Henry Miller (Tropic of Cancer)
"For really, dreaming is the well-mannered people's way of commiting suicide" - Isak Dinesen (The Dreamers)
"Frankly, I have no taste for either poverty or honest labor, so writing is the only recourse left me" - Hunter S. Thompson
"Anyone who could live in this huge reclaimed tenement called Manhattan for more than a year, without losing all vestiges of respect for everything that walks on two legs, would have to be either in love, or possessed of an almost divine understanding. The sight of eight million people struggling silently but desperately to merely stay alive is anything but inspiring" - Hunter S. Thompson
