#fools die

Is that so crazy, to remember unhappiness with such delight and to despise happiness you hold in your hand?

In fact, he once gave me his whole philosophy about being in love. How it was better to be the victim. “Look at it this way,” Osano had said. “When you’re in love with a broad, you’re getting the best of it even though she’s hustling you. You’re the guy who’s feeling great, you’re the guy who’s enjoying every minute. She’s the one who’s having a lousy time. She’s working . . . you’re playing. So why complain when she finally dumps you and you know you’ve been conned?”

Everybody has an excuse for his breakdown in virtue. The truth is you break down when you are prepared to break down.

You can sell yourself anything.
