J.G. Ballard

“Human beings today… are surrounded by huge institutions we can never penetrate: the City, the banking system, political advertising conglomerates, vast entertainment enterprises.

Jack London

“I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot… The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time”. –Jack London
