Ingmar BergmanSometimes I go for days without speaking to a soul. I think, โI should make that call", but I put it off. Because thereโs something pleasurable about not talking. But then I love talking, so itโs not that. But sometimes it can be nice. Itโs not like I sit here philosophizing, because Iโve no talent for that. Itโs just this thing about silence thatโs so wonderful.
Ingmar BergmanThe demons are innumerable, arrive at the most inappropriate times and create panic and terror. But I have learned that if I can master the negative forces and harness them to my chariot, then they can work to my advantage. Lilies often grow out of carcasses' arseholes.
Ingmar BergmanThe world is a den of thieves, and night is falling. Evil breaks its chains and runs through the world like a mad dog. The poison affects us all. No one escapes. Therefore let us be happy while we are happy. Let us be kind, generous, affectionate and good. It is necessary and not at all shameful to take pleasure in the little world.
