when I am feeling low all i have to do is watch my cats and my courage returns

When a writer is swayed with his fame and his fortune, you can float him down the river with the turds.

Now something so sad has hold of us that the breath leaves and we can't even cry.

Some people like what you do, some people hate what you do, but most people simply don't give a damn.

pain is absurd because it exists, nothing more.

Pull a string, a puppet moves ... each man must realize that it can all disappear very quickly: the cat, the woman, the job, the front tire, the bed, the walls, the room; all our necessities including love, rest on foundations of sand - and any given cause, no matter how unrelated: the death of a boy in Hong Kong or a blizzard in Omaha ... can serve as your undoing. all your chinaware crashing to the kitchen floor, your girl will enter and you'll be standing, drunk, in the center of it and she'll ask: my god, what's the matter? and you'll answer: I don't know, I don't know.

If you can hit a guy once, you can hit him twice.
