Emil Cioran Quotes

Without the least effort on our part, we own the universe, we drag it into our own disappearance. No doubt about it, dying is immoral…

• Good art can come out of thieves, bootleggers, or horse swipes. People really are afraid to find out just how much hardship and poverty they can stand. They are afraid to find out how tough they are. Nothing can destroy the good writer. The only thing that can alter the good writer is death.

So the way to treat her is to show her the back of your hand. Then maybe she will do the crawling.
