Deus Irae QUOTES

1 " Like an existentialist, I will infer my state from the actions I perform. Thought follows deed, as Mussolini taught. In Anfang war die Tat, as Goethe says in Faust. In the beginning was the deed, not the word. "

― Philip K. Dick , Deus Irae

2 " What does it mean, "to die"? he wondered. Uniqueness always perishes. Nature works by overproducing each species; uniqueness is a fault, a failure of nature. For survival there should be hundreds, thousands, even millions of one species, all interchangeable—if all but one dies, then nature has won. Generally it loses. But himself. I am unique, he realized. So I am doomed, Every man is unique and hence doomed. A melancholy thought. "

― Philip K. Dick , Deus Irae

3 " La Chiesa e Cosa Nostra hanno qualcosa in comune: una specie di distacco adamantino nei piani alti. I lavoretti sporchi ricadono sui pesci piccoli in fondo al barile. "

― Philip K. Dick , Deus Irae
