She smiled. she knew she was dying. but it did not matter any longer. she had known something which no human words could ever tell and she knew it now. she had been awaiting it and she felt it, as if it had been, as if she had lived it. life had been, if only because she had known it could be, and she felt it now as a hymn without sound, deep under the little whole that dripped red drops into the snow, deeper than that from which the red drops came. a moment or an eternity- did it matter? life, undefeated, existed and could exist. she smiled, her last smile, to so much that had been possible.

He began to trace a pattern on the table with the nail of his thumb. "she kept saying she wanted to keep things exactly the way they were, and that she wished she could stop everything from changing. she got really nervous, like, talking about the future. she once told me that she could see herself now, and she could also see the kind of life she wanted to have - kids, husband, suburbs, you know - but she couldn't figure out how to get from point a to point b.

As is well known, the priests are the most evil enemies—but why? because they are the most impotent. it is because of their impotence that in them hatred grows to monstrous and uncanny proportions, to the most spiritual and poisonous kind of hatred. the truly great haters in world history have always been priests; likewise the most ingenious haters: other kinds of spirit hardly come into consideration when compared with the spirit of priestly vengefulness.

I can be quite surprised by what makes me cry, but it's usually spiritual things.

In this regard, pleasure is an event; happiness is a process. pleasure is an end point; happiness is the journey. pleasure is material; happiness is spiritual. pleasure is self-involved; happiness is outer- and other-involved.
