"And where, I ask you, can a man escape to, when he hasn't enough madness left inside him? The truth is an endless death agony. The truth is death. You have to choose: death or lies. I've never been able to kill myself."

(Artwork The Smoker by Christopher Thomson.)

"It echoed loudly within him because he was hollow at the core."

-Joseph Conrad, Heart of Darkness-

“I’m tired and afraid to continue in this tone. This only to tell you the color of the day and my thoughts. It is heavy and hot. A day for silence, nakedness, shady rooms, abandonment. My thoughts are the color of your hair. Monday and a few days thereafter, they will be the color of your eyes.”

-Albert Camus; Letter to Maria Casarès.-

(Artwork by Joseph Lorusso.)

"Yours

(Now I'm even losing my name - it was getting shorter and shorter all the time and is now: Yours)."
