People with no upper-body strength, who read poetry. These are my people.
Overeating is the addiction of choice of carers, and that’s why it’s come to be regarded as the lowest-ranking of all the addictions. It’s a way of fucking yourself up while still remaining fully func...
Or perhaps we should just junk the whole idea of gettingmarried in the first place. I’m generally against anything whereyou’re supposed to change your name. When else do you getnamed something else? O...
I’m very into the idea of sorting things out through superior paperwork. This is my favorite transformatory power.
It’s amazing how much you can find to say when there’s one big thing you’re too afraid to say: ‘This isn’t working.
It seemed to me that this was the real reason people wanted to fuck so much. To get here. To get to this tiny, quiet place where there was nothing else to do but be with each other. Just to be two hum...
In the street below, a posh-looking drunk man is reading the card of a prostitute, Blue-Tacked up by a doorbell. He’s examining it with all the forensic care I presume he puts into reading a wine list...
I will never tell anyone when I feel bad again. I will never confide a weakness. It does not work. It makes things worse.

And, like all the best quests, in the end, I did it all for a girl: me
There. There you are. You have dropped a marker pin on your body, to reclaim yourself, to remind you where you are: inside yourself. Somewhere. Somewhere in there.
I am eating this noise like mouthfuls of freezing, glittering fog. I am filling with it. I am using it as energy. Because what you are, as a teenager, is a small, silver, empty rocket. And you use lou...
…she is in the girl Matrix trying to catch invisible slow mo bullets those of us outside the Matrix can’t see. You can always tell when a woman is with the wrong man because she has so much to say abo...
Us not forget Charlie Watts punching Mick Jagger after Jagger called him my drummer. You’re my singer, Watts snarled, before adjusting his cuffs, and walking away.
Who doesn't have a friend who worships her lover with a passion that seems baffling to everyone that knows them? Before you met him for the first time, she'd talked him up like he was a cross between...
The working class do things differently. I can hear it. I can see we are not wrong. We are not just poor people who have not yet evolved into something else - i.e., people with money. We are something...
The real problem here is that we’re all dying. All of us. Every day the cells weaken and the fibres stretch and the heart gets closer to its last beat. The real cost of living is dying, and we’re spen...
The level of matter in the universe has been constant since the Big Bang. In all the aeons we have lost nothing, we have gained nothing - not a speck, not a grain, not a breath. The universe is simply...
