I'd like to meet:
I have already met my love, my queen, my inspiration, my Hanana Banana
"You say that my way of thinking cannot be tolerated? What of it? The man who alters his way of thinking to suit others is a fool. My way of thinking is the result of my reflections. It is part of my inner being, the way I am made. I do not contradict them, and would not even if I wished to. For my system, which you disapprove of is also my greatest comfort in life, the source of all my happiness -it means more to me than my life itself."
- Marquis de Sade
"The idea of God is the sole wrong for which I cannot forgive mankind."

"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?"
Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing?
Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able, and willing?
Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able, nor willing?
Then why call him God.
- Epicurus
"All great truths begin as blasphemies."
- George Bernard Shaw
"Solitude is the only friend no one wants."
