“There is one thing I like about the Poles鈥攖heir language. Polish, when it is spoken by intelligent people, puts me in ecstasy. The sound of the language evokes strange images in which there is always a greensward of fine spiked grass in which hornets and snakes play a great part. I remember days long back when Stanley would invite me to visit his relatives; he used to make me carry a roll of music because he wanted to show me off to these rich relatives. I remember this atmosphere well because in the presence of these smooth鈭抰ongued, overly polite, pretentious and thoroughly false Poles I always felt miserably uncomfortable. But when they spoke to one another, sometimes in French, sometimes in Polish, I sat back and watched them fascinatedly. They made strange Polish grimaces, altogether unlike our relatives who were stupid barbarians at bottom. The Poles were like standing snakes fitted up with collars of hornets. I never knew what they were talking about but it always seemed to me as if they were politely assassinating some one. They were all fitted up with sabres and broad鈭抯words which they held in their teeth or brandished fiercely in a thundering charge. They never swerved from the path but rode rough鈭抯hod over women and children, spiking them with long pikes beribboned with blood鈭抮ed pennants. All this, of course, in the drawing鈭抮oom over a glass of strong tea, the men in butter鈭抍olored gloves, the women dangling their silly lorgnettes. The women were always ravishingly beautiful, the blonde houri type garnered centuries ago during the Crusades. They hissed their long polychromatic words through tiny, sensual mouths whose lips were soft as geraniums. These furious sorties with adders and rose petals made an intoxicating sort of music, a steel鈭抯tringed zithery slipper鈭抔ibber which could also register anomalous sounds like sobs and falling jets of water.”
― Henry Miller, Sexus

“Every man has a specific skill, whether it is discovered or not, that more readily and naturally comes to him than it would to another, and his own should be sought and polished. He excels best in his niche - originality loses its authenticity in one's efforts to obtain originality.”

“Nie pytaj pr贸偶no, bo nikt si臋 nie dowie.
Jaki nam koniec gotuj膮 bogowie,
I babilo艅skich nie pytaj wr贸偶biarzy.
Lepiej tak przyj膮膰 wszystko, jak si臋 zdarzy.
A czy z rozkazu Jowisza ta zima,
Co teraz wichrem we艂ny morskie wzdyma,
B臋dzie ostatnia, czy te偶 nam przysporzy
Lat jeszcze kilka tajny wyrok bo偶y,
Nie troszcz si臋 o to i ... klaruj swe wina.
Mknie rok za rokiem, jak jedna godzina.
Wiec 艂ap dzie艅 ka偶dy, a nie wierz ni troch臋
W z艂udnej przysz艂o艣ci obietnice p艂oche.

“Brakuje mi s艂owa. Chodzi o odwrotno艣膰 艣wi臋to艣ci.
- Profanum? - odpar艂 Cie艅.
- Nie. Chodzi mi o miejsca mniej 艣wi臋te ni偶 ka偶de inne. O ujemnej 艣wi臋to艣ci. Miejsca, w kt贸rych nie da si臋 postawi膰 偶adnej 艣wi膮tyni, kt贸rych ludzie unikaj膮, a je艣li ju偶 je odwiedz膮, znikaj膮 jak najszybciej mog膮. Jedynie bogowie mog膮 st膮pa膰 po tych miejscach, je艣li oczywi艣cie kto艣 ich do tego zmusi.

“He had good, open features and a confident air; his blue eyes were wide and watchful, but something about them seemed to hint that in different days and different times they could twinkle and sparkle with fun and mischief. His clothing was tattered and threadbare, but there was an energy to him that did not admit of pity. Somehow, despite his ragged condition, he still looked like a man who had carried a weapon and commanded other men in the not-too-distant past.”

“Zastanawia艂e艣 si臋 nad tym, co oznacza bycie bogiem? - spyta艂. Mia艂 brod臋 i czapeczk臋 baseballow膮. - To oznacza odrzucenie egzystencji materialnej i przemian臋 w mem: co艣, co trwa wiecznie w umys艂ach ludzi, jak dzieci臋ca piosenka. Znaczy to, 偶e ka偶dy odtwarza ci臋 sam w swoim umy艣le. Praktycznie nie masz ju偶 to偶samo艣ci. Stajesz si臋 tysi膮cem aspekt贸w tego, czego pragn膮 od ciebie ludzie. A ka偶dy pragnie czego艣 zupe艂nie innego. Nic nie jest sta艂e, nic nie jest niezmienne.”

“Wy, ludzie, m贸wicie o 偶yciu i 艣mierci, jakby to by艂y dwie rzeczy wzajemnie si臋 wykluczaj膮ce, jakby nie istnia艂a rzeka, b臋d膮ca r贸wnie偶 drog膮, czy pie艣艅, b臋d膮ca kolorem.
Bo nie istniej膮 - odpar艂 Cie艅. - Prawda? Echa znad wody powtarza艂y szeptem jego s艂owa.
Musisz pami臋ta膰 - rzek艂 cierpko pan Ibis 偶e 偶ycie i 艣mier膰 to dwie strony tej samej monety, jak orze艂 i reszka na 膰wier膰dolar贸wce.

“Ile偶 to ju偶 razy widzia艂em, co robi z lud藕mi pragnienie 偶ycia, a ci膮gle nie mog臋 przesta膰 si臋 dziwi膰. Zrezygnowanie z siebie, z艂o偶enie siebie w ofierze, m臋cze艅stwo - to si臋 zdarza w 偶ywotach 艣wi臋tych i bajkach dla dzieci. A w 偶yciu bardzo rzadko, zazwyczaj w szale walki, w ataku w艣ciek艂o艣ci. Wtedy prosty 偶o艂nierz, kt贸ry nie ma za sob膮 ani staro偶ytnego rodu, ani szlachectwa, k艂adzie si臋 piersi膮 na kulomiot, toruj膮c drog臋 towarzyszom. Wtedy ludzie wbiegaj膮 do p艂on膮cych budynk贸w, skacz膮 w odm臋ty, z u艣miechem id膮 na szafot. Wsciek艂o艣膰! Wsciek艂o艣膰 i nienawi艣膰 - tylko one tworz膮 prawdziwe m臋cze艅stwo.”

“Long before daybreak, they stood before the shadowy outline of a long, low farmhouse. From the barnyard came the challenging bark of a livestock guardian dog.
