""The only people for me are the mad ones. The ones who are mad to love, mad to talk, mad to be saved; the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow Roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars." - Jack Kerouac

"Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." - Dr. Seuss

"I am constantly amazed by man's inhumanity to man." - Primo Levi

"I think that the whole of the first world, its suffering is very self-indulgent, there's no real reason to be unhappy , but I think everyone feels that melancholia quite regularly.
I think there's something that you just feel is missing from your life. I think it's very difficult to trust people, very difficult to find any real emotion."
"Nobody ever goes, 'I feel great, life's treated me fine.' It's the classic thing of having an industrial society where most people absorb things their grandparents would never have dreamed of, and there's just a massive general air of disillusionment."
"I think there's a difference between intelligence and knowledge. There are plenty of people with letters after their names who only know figures and dates. It's possible to know a lot of facts but not know anything at all."
"There's an awful lot of white British kids who have never really gone hungry, always had a roof to live under but at the same time are desperately unhappy. It's not total poverty, just a poverty of ideas."
-all Richey Edwards

"When you're frightened of dying and you're holding on, you'll see demons tearing your life away. If you've made your peace, you'll see that the demons are really angels freeing you from the earth. The only thing that burns us is the part you won't let go, your memories, your attachments." - Eckhart

"If thou speaketh truth, O fool, thou wilt be beaten by men tormented, reproved and killed." - Ramon Llull

"I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent."
"In the attitude of silence the soul finds the path in a clearer light, and what is elusive and deceptive resolves itself into crystal clearness. Our life is a long and arduous quest after Truth."
"Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it." - all Gandhi

"Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself."
"In the name of God, stop a moment, cease your work, look around you."
"It seldom happens that a man changes his life through his habitual reasoning. No matter how fully he may sense the new plans and aims revealed to him by reason, he continues to plod along in old paths until his life becomes frustrating and unbearable - he finally makes the change only when his usual life can no longer be tolerated."
"If we would only testify to the truth as we see it, it would turn out that there are hundreds, thousands, even millions of other people just as we are, who see the truth as we do...and are only waiting, again as we are, for someone to proclaim it." -all Leo Tolstoy
