Even in the most barren desert one would still one's heart beating.

When you act without feeling, that's the living death.

Life is nothing, if you feel nothing.

Writing is about preserving things, life is about letting go.

I'm on the side of whatever keeps the flowers growing.

Yes to life, to love, to joy, to pleasure; no to death, hate, misery, and all the forces of repression.

From the body, pleasure; from the body, pain. From the body, life; from the body, death.

I believe in pleasure, in life, not in renunciation.

If you want a happy ending for your life, be happy now.
