Krakow is one of my favorite places on earth. It is a medieval city full of young people. A wonderful, striking combination.
Jonathan Carroll
Image
Death doesn't make you sad- it makes you empty. That's what's so bad about it. All of your charms and beliefs and funny habits fall fast through a big black hole, and suddenly you know they're gone because just as suddenly, there's nothing left at all inside.

I started a short story but it was so dreary that even my pen threw up.
Jonathan Carroll
Image
If you are a success in life, there are places you must go and pay to be humiliated. It is an unwritten law that human beings must be tormented throughout their lives in one way or another. If you are fortunate enough to have risen to a social level where no one does it to you for free, then you must pay for the service.

I read less of everything now. With only fond memories of others' work, it will be interesting to give my own journal writing a try now.

Learn to wait invariably either things will change or your heart will.
Jonathan Carroll
Image
People are always waiting to be discovered.

Image
If I don't feel like writing today or for a few days, I don't. And I don't think about it. It is not an obligation-it is the greatest privilege.
Jonathan Carroll

The only two important things in life are real love and being at peace with yourself.
