01UndatedThe artists are the most powerful ones, the creators, first are the painters, working without words, second are the music composers, and third are the writers.Robert Black / quote ↗
02UndatedIsn't it strange how the most lethal cynics are often the most optimistic creative dreamers?Robert Black / quote ↗
03UndatedWriters and other artists are mostly just historians, produced by nature to describe, decipher and thus historically represent the universe.Robert Black / quote ↗
06UndatedWriters should cut as close to the vein as possible. The readers don't want to be covered in your warm sticky blood, but they want to come as close to it as possible.Robert Black / quote ↗
08UndatedAlcohol let's us go on a journey. It's like paying for a ride. It maybe a ride to nowhere, but at least we get to go on that ride that we paid for. And no journey is the same. We wake up next day, usually with memory loss, usually with regret at something we did or said. But we know, we got our money's worth.Robert Black / quote ↗
09UndatedI believe that the victims and their families should start lodging civil actions for negligence against the politicians. Allowing treasonous murderers into our countries, at the tragic cost to our citizens is worthy of a court action. And as soon as the first judgment goes in favour of the plaintiff, that will change the immigration policies overnight, because, as we know, money is the only thing that talks.Robert Black / quote ↗
10UndatedThe problem with working, I mean not self-employed, is that you have to get up and routinely do something that you do not want to do, plus you get talked down to, ordered around by twats, you know you are better than. In reality, you are no better than a slave, no better than a hamster running on a wheel. You could say the hamster likes to run on the wheel, the hamster runs on the wheel by choice. But do not forget, the hamster is always in a cage, and will never be anything else, but a hamster running on a wheel inside a cage, unless it escapes the cage.Robert Black / quote ↗
11UndatedHuman beings are very skilled at pretending they are not what they are, and ignoring what is inside them. This includes ignoring their natural instincts, their primal instincts, because they have this notion that they are evolving faster than other life, have evolved further, and are therefore superior. Take racism for example. As abhorrent as people may consider it, human beings are essentially tribal, and racism is simply a survival instinct embedded deep inside us, born from thousands of years of survival and experience.Robert Black / quote ↗
12UndatedFor many women, by the time they realize how beautiful they were, it is too late.Robert Black / quote ↗
14UndatedLife can be at its cruelest with love and dreams. But of course they keep most of us going.Robert Black / quote ↗
15UndatedThe best time to do anything, get drunk, surf, run, take a walk, gamble, make love, get high, watch a movie, read a book, is on a Monday, when everyone else is at work, as their depression will heighten your celebration, of not being them.Robert Black / quote ↗
16UndatedMost of us spend all our working life dreaming of doing nothing, then when we end up doing nothing, we long for something. When we have neither longing, I think that is what they call living for the moment.Robert Black / quote ↗
18UndatedMost of my girlfriends are sent by the Devil and seem genuinely bemused when I do not succumb to their powers.Robert Black / quote ↗
19UndatedBetter say gays are bad, or people might think I am gay.That's homophobia, in a nutshell.Robert Black / quote ↗
20UndatedA true heterosexual never has a problem with gay people, gay people sense he is into pussy and only into pussy. That’s why I can’t abide homophobes, deep down they fear their little secret will one day be exposed, picked up by a very reliable gaydar, as sure as wifi is picked up by a computer.Robert Black / quote ↗
21UndatedArt corrupts. Absolute art corrupts absolutely. Please corrupt me absolutely.Robert Black / quote ↗
22UndatedIt’s relatively easy to act nice and normal in front of a crowd, or in public. The tricky part is doing it in private.Robert Black / quote ↗
24UndatedWhen considering female human beings, we should ask ourselves what kind of organisms become overjoyed when presented with decapitated plants as gifts? I suppose we should consider ourselves fortunate they do not become overjoyed when presented with decapitated animals as gifts.Robert Black / quote ↗
