Quote by Adam A. Fox

“Pitiful and vain as it may seem, I wanted to exist in the world - just for a while. I was scared. Scared of being nothing but a person who passed through someone's life, scared of being forgotten, and terrified that my existence would have never meant a thing to anyone.”

“With access to a medicine cabinet full of palliatives, we can avoid introspection. We can delay coming to terms with our inevitable disintegration and avoid investigating the root causes of the spiritual dysfunction that causes our resultant discomfiture. We can medicate ourselves out of thinking beyond placating our immediate needs; we can remain fixated upon expeditiously enhancing our personal pleasure ride. Instead of thinking, all we need is a new prescription drug.”
