"There comes a time in each life like a point of fulcrum. At that time you must accept yourself. It is not anymore what you will become. It is what you are and always will be."
Life
"Each death laid a dreadful charge of complicity on the living; each death was incongenerous, its guilt irreducible, its sadness immortal; a bracelet of bright hair about the bone. I did not pray for her, because prayer has no efficacy; I did not cry for her, because only extroverts cry twice; I sat in the silence of that night, that infinite hostility to man, to permanence, to love, remembering her, remembering her."
Philosophy
"There is only one good definition of God: the freedom that allows other freedoms to exist."

"Men love war because it allows them to look serious. Because it is the one thing that stops women laughing at them."
Love
"Time in itself, absolutely, does not exist; it is always relative to some observer or some object. Without a clock I say 'I do not know the time' . Without matter time itself is unknowable. Time is a function of matter; and matter therefore is the clock that makes infinity real."
Science
"In our age it is not sex that raises its ugly head, but love."
Sensitivity
"The moon hung over the planet Earth, a dead thing over a dying thing."
Nature
"Piers is always going on about how he hated Stowe. As if that solves everything, as if to hate something means it can't have affected you."
Social
"And I envy you. You have the one thing that matters. You have all your discoveries before you."
