I'm not a very shy person. I'm just somebody who's got a lot of work and who doesn't like to parade himself in new celebrity contexts.

Existence is random. Has no pattern save what we imagine after staring at it for too long. No meaning save what we choose to impose.

The ending is nearer than you think, and it is already written. All that we have left to choose is the correct moment to begin.

To some degree Satanism is purely a kind of disease of Christianity. You've got to really be Christian to believe in Satan.

I still can't believe it . . . him comin' here everyday, nobody realizin'. Still, that's life: lotta stuff happens under the waterline.

Look at him now, poor fellow. That's what a dose of reality does for you...Never touch the stuff myself, you understand. Find it gets in the way of the hallucinations.

It doesn't do you any service to demonize any group of people. It's much better to try and understand from the inside.
