There is a horrifying loneliness at work in this time. No, listen to me. We lived six and seven to a room in those days, when I was still among the living. The city streets were seas of humanity; and now in these high buildings dim-witted souls hover in luxurious privacy, gazing through the television window at a faraway world of kissing and touching. It is bound to produce some great fund of common knowledge, some new level of human awareness, a curious skepticism, to be so alone.

Consequently, if you believe God made Satan, you must realize that all Satan's power comes from God and so that Satan is simply God's child, and that we are God's children also. There are no children of Satan, really.

I congratulate myself on not having arrived into the world until the present time. This age suits my taste.

For me, places have a tremendous impact. I fall in love with places. All of life seems different in different places.

Evil is just a point of view

Get thee behind me, tragedy.

The atheism and nihilism of my earlier years now seems shallow, and even a bit cocky.
