More From Fran Lebowitz

It was a foggy day in london, and the fog was heavy and dark. animate london, with smarting eyes and irritated lungs, was blinking, wheezing, and choking; inanimate london was a sooty spectre, divided in purpose between being visible and invisible, and so being wholly neither.

At first i wasn’t all that tempted by him, but then he killed the spider. which was a huge point in his favor.” “absolutely. i love men who kill bugs.” “and then when i was freaking out and couldn’t breathe, he was so…gentle.” zoe sighed and colored, remembering. “he was holding me, and talking to me in that voice…you know, sort of low and rough around the edges…” “all the nolans sound like that,” justine said reflectively. “like they’ve got a mild case of bronchitis. totally hot.

If one looks closely one sees that there is no essential difference between a beggar's livelihood and that of numberless respectable people. beggars do not work, it is said; but then, what is work? a navvy works by swinging a pick. an accountant works by adding up figures. a beggar works by standing out of doors in all weathers and getting varicose veins, chronic bronchitis, etc. it is a trade like any other; quite useless, of course - but then, many reputable trades are quite useless.

Goal setting is fine if you want to be the warrior archetype. these people are setting goals constantly and trying to get someplace else. they say, "if you don't know where you are going, then you won't know when you get there." when you get to a higher level of consciousness, though, when you get into a spiritual approach to life, you are not trying to get someplace else, because you never can get it done. you never are going to get there. instead, what you want to do is get to a place where you are at peace. you are connected to god.

There's a hole in the world like a great black pit and the vermin of the world inhabit it and its morals aren't worth what a pig could spit and it goes by the name of london. at the top of the hole sit the privileged few making mock of the vermin in the lonely zoo turning beauty to filth and greed... i too have sailed the world and seen its wonders, for the cruelty of men is as wonderous as peru but there's no place like london!

I don’t smoke, although it looks fantastic in films. but i light matches on those thinking blank nights when i crawl my route out onto the roof of the garage and the sky while my parents sleep innocent and the lonely cars move sparse on the faraway streets, when the pillow won’t stay cool and the blankets bother my body no matter how i move or lie still. i just sit with my legs dangling and light matches and watch them flicker away.

When you're sad and when you're lonely and you haven't got a friend, just remember that death is not the end.
