“Like love, mourning affects the world—and the worldly—with unreality, with importunity. I resist the world, I suffer from what it demands of me, from its demands. The world increases my sadness, my dryness, my confusion, my irritation, etc. The world depresses me.”
― Roland Barthes, Mourning Diary: October 26, 1977–September 15, 1979

“Whenever you feel that someone is angry or someone has collided with you, you always think that he is responsible. This is how ignorance concludes, interprets. Ignorance always says, ”The other is responsible.�� Wisdom always says, ”If somebody is responsible, then I am responsible, and the only way not to collide is not to be.��
”I am responsible�� doesn’t mean, ”I am doing something, that is why they are angry.�� That is not the question. You may not be doing anything, but just your being there is enough for people to get angry. The question is not whether you are doing good or bad. The question is that you are there.”
― Osho

“So, along with clear seeing, there’s another important element, and that’s kindness. It seems that, without clarity and honesty, we don’t progress. We just stay stuck in the same vicious cycle. But honesty without kindness makes us feel grim and mean, and pretty soon we start looking like we’ve been sucking on lemons. We become so caught up in introspection that we lose any contentment or gratitude we might have had. The sense of being irritated by ourselves and our lives and other people’s idiosyncrasies becomes overwhelming. That’s why there’s so much emphasis on kindness.”
― Pema Chödrön, When Things Fall Apart: Heart Advice for Difficult Times

“We are so unhappy that we can only enjoy something which we should be annoyed to see go wrong, and that can and does constantly happen to thousands of things. Anyone who found the secret of rejoicing when things go well without being annoyed when they go badly would have found the point. It is perpetual motion.”
― Blaise Pascal, �ʱ�Բ�é���

“From Brandon's perspective, this kid possessed the unique ability (it was actually more of a gift) to get under his skin. Most of us know somebody like this. Through their words, actions, and even facial expressions, they evolve into a special breed of human able to push all the right buttons needed to get you upset, angry, or frustrated. It's an irritation really, like an inward pain you can't quite locate. These people needle you non-stop until they get the response they want. For reasons unknown, they somehow gain a sort of perverse pleasure out of making you upset. They decompose you. In the process your nerves resemble the ends of a frayed rope.
Come to think of it, those same people later grow up to be adults. And they don't go away, either. They work in your office, live in your neighborhood, and have children on your son's baseball team. Sometimes they even marry into your family! There is no escape from them.”
― Jeff Kinley

“Adesso al check-in, alla domanda "corridoio o finestrino?", rispondo "ovunque, purché non sia vicino a un bambini" e la hostess di terra, vittima anch'ella dietro il suo sorriso, mi guarda con comprensione. Entrambe siamo consapevoli che non c'è alcuna possibilità che una creatura di tre anni non rompa i coglioni a nessuno per la durata di un volo di nove ore e ogni mammina che imbarca un pargolo questo lo sa benissimo. È lei a mettere in conto che, in nome della presunta tenerezza che dovrebbe ispirare il suo bambino, le persone che incontrerà sopporteranno senza lamentarsi una quota di molestie che non hanno scelto. Questo tipo di mammina si incazza quando l'attesa tolleranza non si manifesta e cerca di ribaltare il piano delle cose. Diventa giudicante. Stizzita dice: "Ma è un bambini", come fosse il suo lasciapassare per imporlo al mondo. Lo vedo anch'io che è un bambino, dannata mammina, ma è proprio la ragione per cui non dovrebbe essere qui, tra adulti che non hanno e non vogliono bambini o che li hanno responsabilmente affidati ad altre persone pagate per subirli, invece che pretendere che i presenti di un intero ristorante, di un aereo o di uno scompartimento si imprivvisino gratis puericultrici, nonni e babysitter del tuo pargolo irrequieto.”
― Michela Murgia, Tre ciotole: Rituali per un anno di crisi

“La verità è semplice e forse non ti piace, ma è quella: la maggior parte delle persone non fa figli proprio per non sopportare neanche dai suoi [figli] quello che tu stai chiedendo di tollerare dal tuo.”
― Michela Murgia, Tre ciotole: Rituali per un anno di crisi

“All marriages are like this. The component parts are contempt and irritation because we know each other by heart, by rote; we're all graduates of the blab school for double harness. Then he looked at the redgold hair, the sweet curve of the mouth, and thought, Truthlie, because marriage is more than that. It's part hate, part love. It's remembered agony, and remembered delight.”
