Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.
A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself-and especially to feel, or not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at any moment is fine with them. That’s what real love amounts to – letting a person be what he really is.
Where’s your will to be weird?
The future is uncertain but the end is always near.
It may have been in pieces, but I gave you the best of me.
You feel your strength in the experience of pain.
A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.
There are things known and there are things unknown and in between are the doors.
Some of the worst mistakes in my life were haircuts.
Whoever controls the media, controls the mind.
The highest and lowest points are the important ones. Anything else is just in between.
Well, I’ve been down so Goddamn long, that it looks like up to me.
A true friend is someone who lets you have total freedom to be yourself – and especially to feel. Or, not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at the moment is fine with them.
Or society places a supreme value on control – hiding what you feel. Our culture mocks “primitive cultures” and prides itself on supression of natural instincts and impulses.
The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask.
I’“ll never look into your eyes again.
Urge to come to terms with the “Outside,” by absorbing, interiorizing it. I won’t come out, you must come in to me. Into my womb-garden where I peer out. Where I can construct a universe within the skull, to rival the real.
The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You trade in your sense for an act. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask. There can’t be any large-scale revolution until there’s a personal revolution, on an individual level. It’s got to happen inside first.
If my poetry aims to achieve anything, it’s to deliver people from the limited ways in which they see and feel.
