“It is is better to know one book intimately than a hundred superficially.”
| The Secret History
in another universe they burned the car together and ran away
THAT WHICH DRIVES US, A MYSTERIOUS THING CALLED THE HEART
IF YOU EVEN CARE!
Richard Papen really started the book by saying he’s a compulsive liar and then just went “so anyway here’s what happened.”
The future isn’t just 10 years away or 5 months, or even 1 week.
It’s the next hour, the next minute, your next breath.
Like a dog tugging at the hem of your pants.
I think that’s why we are all so tired.
Constantly reaching for something that’s already behind us.
The Secret History destroyed my life like what do you mean I can't drink wine and study classical literature and spend the nights in a countryside mansion with piano echoing through the dark halls and break through the confines of humanity in a bacchanal and commit a string of murders and try to escape but eventually kill myself in a blaze of glory, ultimately shattering the lives of the people around me? That I can't escape the cognitive mode of experience and transcend the accident of my moment of being? That I can't lose my self, lose it utterly? What do you mean I can't live without thinking?
Odysseus: How many suitors are there? Servant: 128. Though, twenty of them formed a guard, after Antinous turned out to be a dick. Odysseus: *Thinking* Servant: Ten are away with the prince, the other ten are keeping guard over Penelope. Odysseus: Why? Servant: They're being bodyguards Odysseus: No, why did they come if they're not seeking the Queen's hand? Servant: Oh, they're trying to convince the Prince to marry their daughters. *Meanwhile* Guard #1: *Watching Telemachus with one of his friends* I'm starting to think the Prince might be swinging the other way. Guard #2: That's alright, I've got a son.
