Unfortunately for the betterment of mankind it is not always the fair-minded who are in the right. - Saul Bellow

My soul is like a pawn shop. I mean it's filled with unredeemed pleasures, old clarinets, and cameras, and motheaten fur.

One must bear in mind the odd angle or slant that the rays of love have to take in order to reach a heart like mine.

Shall I run back into the desert ... and stay there until the devil has passed out of me and I am fit to meet human kind again without driving it to despair at the first look? I haven't had enough desert yet.
