Everything Is A Dangerous Drug Except Reality

In Youth The Life Of Reason Is Not In Itself Sufficient; Afterwards The Life Of Emotion, Except For Short Periods, Becomes Unbearable.

Those Of Us Who Were Brought Up As Christians And Have Lost Our Faith Have Retained The Sense Of Sin Without The Saving Belief In Redemption. This Poisons Our Thought And So Paralyses Us In Action.

While Thoughts Exist, Words Are Alive And Literature Becomes An Escape, Not From, But Into Living.

We Are All Serving A Life Sentence In The Dungeon Of The Self.

When Even Despair Ceases To Serve Any Creative Purpose, Then Surely We Are Justified In Suicide.
