She had waited all her life for something, and it had killed her when it found her Picture Quote #1

I have the nerve to walk my own way, however hard, in my search for reality, rather than climb upon the rattling wagon of wishful illusions Picture Quote #1

She had an inside and an outside now and suddenly she knew how not to mix them Picture Quote #1

He was the average mortal. It troubled him to get used to the world one way and then suddenly have it turn different Picture Quote #1

Light came to me when I realized that I did not have to consider any racial group as a whole. God made them duck by duck and that was the only way I could see them Picture Quote #1

Through indiscriminate suffering men know fear, and fear is the most divine emotion. It is the stones for altars and the beginning of wisdom Picture Quote #1

I belong to no race nor time. I am the eternal feminine with its string of beads Picture Quote #1

It is easy to be hopeful in the day when you can see the things you wish on Picture Quote #1

All gods who receive homage are cruel. All gods dispense suffering without reason. Otherwise they would not be worshipped. Through indiscriminate suffering men know fear and fear is the most divine emotion. It is the stones for altars and the beginning of wisdom. Half gods are worshipped in wine and flowers. Real gods require blood Picture Quote #1

There’s two things everybody got to find out for themselves: they got to find out about love, and they got to find out about living. Now, love is like the sea. It’s a moving thing. And it’s different on every shore. And living... well... There are years that ask questions and years that answer Picture Quote #1

But any man who walks in the way of power and property is bound to meet hate Picture Quote #1
