Author of quotes: Philip Roth

Old age isn't a battle, it's slaughter.

Someone lucky and someone not. Any biography is a game of chance, and, starting from conception, the tyranny of the case determines everything. The case - which I think was referring to Mr. Cantor, revile what he called God.

You go to someone and think, "I'll Tell you." But why? So, how do you hope to ease the soul? That's why you feel so ugly then soul you've solved it, but if everything you told me really horrible and tragic, you become better, but worse: the nudity, the inevitable confession, only exacerbating the suffering.

It should of course be remembered that a proper understanding of people is not life. Life is their wrong understanding, more in it deepening, a conscientious review of its conclusions and again the wrong conclusion. Misconceptions - that allows us to live on. And maybe the right thing - to stop worrying about fidelity or falsity of our view of people and just continue to go through life. If you manage this, you're lucky.

Irony is one of the means of protection and is absolutely meaningless if your way is the way of deity.

The body keeps a history of life in the same way as the brain.

From now on, all earthly misfortunes become controlled through strict intervals interrupt the advertisement break. TV doing what it does best - he turned tragedy into everyday life. Triumph of superficial existence...

If death is what good is that son of a bitches she did not pass.

If there are men trapped in female bodies and women trapped in a man's, then why can't I be locked up in this here body of a crow? And where the kind of doctor that will do what they're doing, and let me out? Where such a surgery that will allow me to be me? With whom to go to speak? Where to go, what to do, how the hell to get out?

Something returns to life, and then it'll kill you.

But remember that whore said - that is, their great wisdom: "a Man does not pay for the fact that you're sleeping with him, and that then go away".

I surprised myself with the desire to tell the good man felt that saying once that I go into the explanation too far, feel servomechanism and overexcited as a child, when you think that the new boy on the street you found your only friend, and you're acting completely wrong, as usual, open far more than you yourself want.

The subconscious over him because no control. It's like the government. This is the government. Again and again the government, that's it. Makes you do something you don't want to do.

Hatred is a dangerous thing. Her's how: once you start you won't stop. Will go a hundred times further than you want. It is more difficult to keep under control, than anything else in the world. It is easier to quit drinking than to curb the hatred.
