I am a series of small victories and large defeats.

I take much pleasure in being alone but there is also a strange warm grace in not being alone.

a good book can make an almost impossible existence, liveable ( from 'the luck of the word' )

You have to die a few times before you can really live.

the tired sunsets and the tired people - it takes a lifetime to die and no time at all.

Most people's deaths are a sham. There's nothing left to die.

If you want to know where God is, ask a drunk.
