Existence itself does not feel horrible; it feels like an ecstasy, rather, which we have only to be still to experience.

Our lives fade behind us before we die.

Life is a nacho. It can be yummy-crunchy or squishy-yucky. It just depends on how long it takes for you to start eating it.

As I get older, my childhood self becomes more accessible to me, but selectively, in images as stylized and suspect as moments remembered from a novel read years ago.

Celebrity is a mask that eats into the face.

My life is, in a sense, trash. My life is only that of which the residue is my writing.

The world ... is full of people who never knew what hit 'em, their lives are over before they wake up.
