“All I have ever done was selfish. I have never loved anyone besides myself. Where does goodness come from? Stories (books, movies, religious texts etc.)? Where does that come from? Desire to believe in magic? Desire to believe we are something more than a selfish animal? What about motherly love? Is that how we start, and after we lose it, the void inside stays forever? And we are trying to fill it until the day we die? Unconditional love. Is that the thing we are after? Only then we can appreciate the magic of life? After a wonderful tryst and amidst the fantasies of the future with that lover trees and people become the most beautiful things.”

“There are better ways to handle anxiety and depression than using prescription drugs and therapies. It's drugs, sex, and alcohol. And go on an adventure. Or maybe it was just meant to be for you to suffer. But look at the fruit of it. Maybe it's worth it? What if you stopped desiring altogether? What would be left of you then? Peace? Or becoming famous is more important than peace? Would having a statue of you in the city center make you happy? You would finally be able to tell your family and friends: "Look and obey me, I am superior!!!". Oh, but most likely it would only be built after your death... Such a shame. You are growing old, and you will die. No matter what. Quite a show, isn't?”

“i want to know what they are talking about. these monks, these people who have these "religious" experiences. the void? will i achieve it? that is my goal. but having a goal like that will prevent me from achieving it? haha, what a paradox. ego death, losing all attachments, really lead to this so called paradise? why care for anything? because you consist of all of them? deep down you know it?”
