Michel Houellebecq
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.

When you read the Koran, you give up. At least the Bible is very beautiful because Jews have an extraordinary literary talent.
Michel Houellebecq
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.
Michel Houellebecq

Active people don't change the world profoundly ideas do. Napoleon is less important in world history than Jean-Jacques Rousseau.
Michel Houellebecq
Image
I am for the muscles. I would like to have a lot of muscles, because women like it. I'm for bodybuilding, but it's very exhausting.
Michel Houellebecq
Image
Love binds, and it binds forever. Good binds while evil unravels. Separation is another word for evil it is also another word for deceit.

The most stupid religion is Islam.
