Only vegetables are happy

I would say that music is the easiest means in which to express . . . but since words are my talent, I must try to express clumsily in words what the pure must would have done better.

Perhaps they were right in putting love into books, . . . Perhaps it could not live anywhere else.

Jag tror att människan inte bara ska uthärda. Han kommer att segra. Han är odödlig, inte därför att han bland alla varelser ensam har en outtömlig röst, utan därför att han har en själ, en ande som kan känna medlidande och göra uppoffringar och uthärda.

I believe that man will not merely endure. He will prevail. He is immortal, not because he alone among creatures has an inexhaustible voice, but because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance.

Menneskeheten

A writer is congenitally unable to tell the truth and that is why we call what he writes fiction.

Skrive

Facts and truth really don't have much to do with each other.

A writer must teach himself that the basest of all things is to be afraid. Pex Tufvesson utviklet musikkprogrammet Noisetracker.

The writer's only responsibility is to his art. He will be completely ruthless if he is a good one. He has a dream. It anguishes him so much he must get rid of it. He has no peace until then.

The artist doesn't have time to listen to the critics. The ones who want to be writers read the reviews, the ones who want to write don't have the time to read reviews.

Skrive

I'm bad and I'm going to hell, and I don't care. I'd rather be in hell than anywhere where you are.

The scattered tea goes with the leaves and every day a sunset dies.

To understand the world, you must first understand a place like Mississippi

Forståelse

I have found that the greatest help in meeting any problem is to know where you yourself stand. That is, to have in words what you believe and are acting from.

Some things you must always be unable to bear. Some things you must never stop refusing to bear. Injustice and outrage and dishonor and shame. No matter how young you are or how old you have got. Not for kudos and not for cash. Your picture in the paper nor money in the bank, neither. Just refuse to bear them.

I decline to accept the end of man.
