"You must go on I can't go on I'll go on""Every word is like an unnecessary stain on silence and nothingness""Habit is a great deadener""Dance first. Think later. It's the natural order.""The sun shone, having no alternative, on the nothing new.""Nothing is more real than nothing.""I can't go on. I'll go on.""You're on earth. There's no cure for that.""All of old. Nothing else ever. Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better.""What do I know of man's destiny? I could tell you more about radishes.""We are all born mad. Some remain so.""Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better."
