Kurt Vonnegut
“I don’t have fun. Actually, I had fun once, in 1962. I drank a whole bottle of Robitussin cough medicine and went in the back of a 1961 powder-blue Lincoln Continental to a James Brown concert with some Mexican friends of mine. I haven’t had fun since. It’s just not a word I like. It’s like Volkswagens or bellbottoms, or patchouli oil or bean sprouts. It rubs me up the wrong way. I might go out and have an educational and entertaining evening, but I don’t have fun.”
Tom Waits

“Obsessed by a fairy tale, we spend our lives searching for a magic door and a lost kingdom of peace.”

"Our unwillingness to see our own faults and the projection of them onto others is the source of most quarrels, and the strongest guarantee that injustice, animosity, and persecution will not easily die out."
Carl Jung
Mr. Gryll. Newfoundland salt fish, Doctor.
The Rev. Dr. Opimian. That is something, but it does not turn the scale.
Thomas Love Peacock's Gryll Grange (1860)
