About me:
Check out the latest Distortions album - Machines At Night.
"What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset."
-Chief Crowfoot
"There is neither happiness nor misery in the world; there is only the comparison of one state with another, nothing more. He who has felt the deepest grief is best able to experience supreme happiness."
-Alexandre Dumas (The Count of Monte Cristo)
"The aim of life is self-development. To realize one's nature perfectly - that is what each of us is here for."
-Oscar Wilde (The Picture of Dorian Gray)
"To be bitter is to attribute intent and personality to the formless, infinite, unchanging and unchangeable void. We drift on a chartless, resistless sea. Let us sing when we can, and forget the rest..."
-H.P. Lovecraft (letter to FB Long: Mar. 21, 1924)
"He had no longer any need for home, for he carried his Gormenghast within him. All that
he sought was jostling within himself. He had grown up. What a boy had set out to seek a
man had found, found by the act of living."
-Mervyn Peake (Titus Alone)
"I sometimes feel that I'm impersonating the dark unconscious of the whole human race. I know this sounds sick, but I love it."
-Vincent Price
