***************
Religion will not
regain its old power till
we pray to Science
***************
Abstinence is not
simplicity; abstinence
is the death of God
***************
Civilization
advances by extending
its distrust of art
***************
The human body
is an instrument for the
production of vice
***************
To make the past live
we must perceive it as the
eternal present
***************
There are billions of
molecules in the human
soul—they dance like fish
***************
Ninety percent of
life is pain; the rest is Christ
nailed to a cheap cross
***************
Immortality
is the everlasting search
for anesthesia
***************
Of what value is
the attainment of knowledge
if you have no mind?
***************
Solitariness
is a bagatelle; being
alone is pure zest
***************
Amid the flux, there
is something that survives: the
need for a large truck
***************
Put your brain in cold
storage; thinking is merely
abstract inference
***************
