« The dream left a sensation of such bitterness that I felt life could only be lived in sleep. Occupations like washing, dressing, eating, and talking became more laborious that the sun revolved more slowly on it’s orbit. Every human creature I saw filled me with repugnance, till I did not dare approach the window to look into the street. When anyone chanced to knock on the door I hid, shuddering with horror in the bathroom. »

« It’s now very common to hear people say ‘I’m rather offended by that’ as if that gives them certain rights; it’s actually nothing more, it’s simply a whine. It’s no more than a whine, ‘I find that offensive.’ It has no meaning, it has no purpose. It has no reason to be respected as a phrase. ‘I’m offended by that.’ Well, so fucking what? »

« I don’t like the idea of ‘understanding’ a film. I don’t believe that rational understanding is an essential element in the reception of any work of art. Either a film has something to say to you or it hasn’t. If you are moved by it, you don’t need it explained to you. If not, no explanation can make you moved by it. »

« I have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other. »

Sing if you’re glad to be gay
Sing if you’re happy that way

And sit back and watch as they close down our clubs
Arrest us for meeting and raid all our pubs
Make sure your boyfriend’s at least 21
And if you’re a lesbian don’t be a mum
Lie to your workmates, lie to your folks
Put down the queens and tell anti-queer jokes
Gay Lib’s ridiculous, join their laughter
‘The buggers are legal now, what more are they after?’

« Be nobody’s darling;
Be an outcast.
Take the contradictions
Of your life
And wrap around
You like a shawl,
To parry stones
To keep you warm.

«

If I say fuck a lot well then I may gain more attention
If I say cunt well then with some of you there will be tension

I find this interesting coz in the end they are just words
You give them power when you cower, man it’s so absurd

But all that was covered by Lenny Bruce back in the day
Nothing’s original now I’m repeating what I say

« I unmake the death-bed, I remake the marriage-bed I said. And as I lay thinking of all the beds we had lain in, she came and pulled aside the sheets and leaped in beside me. And so I slept all night with her ashes in a respectable little fumed oak tabernacle beside me. »
