I just don't seem to be capable of believing in evil as some separate, distinct power within itself. I guess I'm just not a Southern Baptist or a Fundamentalist. I just don't seem to be capable of believing in it myself, somehow. I don't . . . I can't conceive from my experience how this force of evil can exist without the force of love being right there.
Hubert Selby, Jr.I have to have a meaning in my life. If I roam around without some meaning in my life, I'm in deep and serious trouble. I can't, I just can't exist.
Hubert Selby, Jr.I suspect there will never be a requiem for a dream, simply because it will destroy us before we have the opportunity to mourn it's passing.
