Following the premise of Chekhov’s pistol, as told by Haruki Murakami on Kafka on the Shore:

• “if a pistol appears in a story, eventually it’s got to be fired”. Necessity is an independent concept. It has different structure from logic, morals or meaning. It’s function lies entirely in the role it plays. What necessity requires DOES need to exist.

I decided to create this new category which is to include a collection of quotes and extracts I have found enticing,  from different books I’ve read. Some have only been interesting, others have produce deep change or even set in motion new ways of thinking. Hope they get to you too or at least you’ll find them amusing.

• The mechanism of the world itself is built on destruction and loss.

• Taking crazy things seriously is a serious waste of time. Pointless thinking is worst than no thinking at all.

• Sheepish butlers’ surgical bottle battles

• A life without reading Hamlet is like a life spent in a coal mine. -Berlioz

• There’s no war that will end all wars. War is a perfect, self-contained being.

• Genius doesn’t specialize; genious is reason itself.

• Whiskey, like a beautiful woman, demands appreciation. You gaze first, then it’s time to drink.

• A good woodsman has only one scar on him.

• Metaphysics is never more than semantic pleasantries anyway.

• … I was evolving into an echo.

• There’s no time in tautologies. That’s the difference between tautologies and dreams. Tautologies are instantaneous, everything is revealed at once. Eternity can actually be experienced.

• Losing you is most difficult for me, but the nature of my love for you is what matters. If it distorts into half-truth, then perhaps it is better not to love you.

• When you say you believe, you allow the possibility of disappointment. And from disappointment or betrayal, there may come dispair. Such is the way of the mind.

• It is like looking for lost drops of rain in a river.

• Two people can sleep in the same bed and still be alone when they close their eyes, if you know what I mean.

When life gives me lemons I make beef stew.

Sometimes I really need to stop myself from asking if you PRACTICE being so annoying cause you’ve got it down to an art form

Ohhh! Can’t you see? Love is a drug to me.

I believe a good pain saving method would be cutting out my heart with a rusty razor and feeding it to some hungry dogs

My pussy can still do the dog.

OH: Friendship is like peeing on yourself… Everyone sees it but only you get the warm feelings that it brings.

Why do I beg like a child for your candy?

It’s wrong somehow that the miracles of the Iphone and 3G broadband mean that I can download lolcats while waiting for my movie to start.

This is the kind of cold that makes sperm die. Yuk.

DUDE you’re grossing me OUT. BUY SOME BALLS and stop ass-kissing. You’re such a GIRL.

Stop making sense.

Oh I screw that last one up. I was still composing and send to soon. Premature twitteration.

Awh, it’s so cute you finally found someone who’ll actually have sex with you.

That’s a good question son. Being popular is the most important thing in the world.

OH: Your fingers are going to be so dirty after this.

OH: He’s so overprotective of his balls.

Your best is good enough for someone, just lower your standards.

Here I am, rock you like a huricane.

Your panic attack is having a panic attack. It’s worse, it’s called a panic-anic attack.

You might not be the best looking girl here but beauty is only one light switch away.

Is there a mirror in your pants? Cause I can totally see myself in them!

I’ve been trying for some time to develop a lifestile that doesn’t requires my presence. Gary Trudeau

OH: Give the gift of kosher prostate
