I admit that invective is one of my pleasures. This only brings me problems in life, but that's it. I attack, I insult. I have a gift for that, for insults, for provocation. So I am tempted to use it.

Islam is a dangerous religion.

Image
I feel as if things are falling apart within me, like so many glass partitions shattering. I walk from place to place in the grip of a fury, needing to act, yet can do nothing about it because any attempt seems doomed in advance. Failure, everywhere failure. Only suicide hovers above me, gleaming and inaccessible.

The triumph of vegetation is total.

I prefer reading to writing. Reading changes your world view. Writing changes absolutely nothing. Except, of course, when it makes you rich.
Michel Houellebecq
Image
Not having anything around to read is dangerous: you have to content yourself with life itself, and that can lead you to take risks.
Michel Houellebecq
Image
Depressive lucidity, usually described as a radical withdrawal from ordinary human concerns, generally manifests itself by a profound indifference to things which are genuinely of minor interest. Thus it is possible to imagine a depressed lover, while the idea of a depressed patriot seems frankly inconceivable.

I think it's more difficult to live without a religion, definitely.
Michel Houellebecq
Image
I think that if writers don't speak about real life, it's because they don't know it.

Image
In reality, the monotheist texts preach neither peace, love nor tolerance. They are texts of hate.

Image
On Sunday morning I went out for a while in the neighbourhood I bought some raisin bread. The day was warm but a little sad, as Sundays often are in Paris, especially when one doesn't believe in God.

Life is painful and disappointing. It is useless, therefore, to write new realistic novels. We generally know where we stand in relation to reality and don’t care to know any more.
