Do you read everything you're supposed to read? Do you think every thing you're supposed to think? Buy what you're told to want? Get out of your apartment. Meet a member of the opposite sex. Stop the excessive shopping and masturbation. Quit your job. Start a fight. Prove you're alive. If you don't claim your humanity you will become a statistic. You have been warned.”

“ما أحمق الإنسان ! يجعل من حياته سلسلة مسببات للحزن. يحزن لأوهي الاسباب وأتفه العلات .. في دنيا ليس بها ما يستحق الحزن .. إنسان تافه في دنيا تافهة .. يحزن المرء لأن بقعة حبر قد سقطت علي ثوبه الأبيض فأتلفته، ولو تذكر عندما أصابه الحزن علي ثوبه أنه ليس أسهل من أن يطوي هو وثوبه الأبيض تحت عجلات الترام، ليغرق ثوبه بالحبر وهو هانىء سعيد.يحزن المرء لأنه غلب في صفقة أو أن البائع قد خدعه في بضعة قروش، ولو علم ان جرثومة صغيرة قد تسلبه عشرات الجنيهات لكي ينجو من مرضها لما أحزنته قروشه الضائعة. يحزن المرء إذا فقد متعة من المتع ، ولو دري أنه في غمضة عين قد يفقد نفسه .. لما أسف علي متعة زالت.”
