heteroglossia:

According to Forbes, the least valuable college majors include English, history, anthropology, humanities, philosophy, art, and music. It should be questioned whether a society that so undervalues these fields deserves to continue.

“Nevažno je koji način razaranja izabereš. Neko sebe sahranjuje u biblioteci, neko u kafani. Rezultat je isti. Način samorazaranja potrđuje nešto samo o načinu tog čovjeka. Kaži mi kako se uništavaš, reći ću ti ko si. Zapravo, kaži mi čime ispunjavaš samoću; knjigama, ženama, ambicijama. Svuda je polazna točka dosada, a cilj uništenje.”

- Emil Cioran, Suze i sveci

“Let us for a moment imagine that the act of procreation were not a necessity or accompanied by intense pleasure, but a matter of pure rational deliberation; could then the human race really continue to exist? Would not everyone rather feel so much sympathy for the coming generation that he would prefer to spare it the burden of existence, or at any rate would not like to assume in cold blood the responsibility of imposing on it such a burden? The world is just a hell and in it human beings are the tortured souls on the one hand, and the devils on the other. I suppose I shall have to be told again that my philosophy is cheerless and comfortless simply because I tell the truth, whereas people want to hear that the Lord has made all things very well. Go to your churches and leave us philosophers in peace!”

“Don’t distinguish what he feels with the word existential. It has nothing to do with philosophy. He believes he’s nothing, and it appears he’s correct. This is called depression, but it may simply be a realistic view of the situation.”

- Roger Ebert, Somewhere (Review)

So long to this cold, cold part of the world
So long to this bone-bleached part of the world
So long to this salt-soaked part of the world
I stepped down as president of Antarctica
Can’t blame me
Don’t blame me
So long to this sad, sad part of the world
So long
