Wars have no memory, and nobody has the courage to understand them until there are no voices left to tell what happened.

God gives us life, but the world's landlord is the devil.

Whether we realise it or not, most of us define ourselves by opposing rather than by favouring something or someone. To put it another way, it is easier to react than to act.

Television is the Antichrist, and I can assure you after only three or four generations, people will no longer even know how to fart on their own and humans will return to medieval savagery and to the general state of imbecility that slugs overcame back in the Pleistocene era. Our world will not die as a result of the bomb...it will die of laughter, of banality, of making a joke of everything and a lousy joke at that.

The wider the author's arsenal of tools and the better technically equipped the storyteller is, the better the tale will be.

Time goes faster the more hollow it is. Lives with no meaning go straight past you, like trains that don’t stop at your station.

Nothing important is learned; it is simply remembered.
