Collected Essays 5: Philosophy, Autobiography and Miscellany QUOTES

1 " It is good to be a cynic — it is better to be a contented cat — and it is best not to exist at all. "

― H.P. Lovecraft , Collected Essays 5: Philosophy, Autobiography and Miscellany

2 " It is good to be a cynic--it is better to be a contented cat--and it is best not to exist at all. Universal suicide is the most logical thing in the world--we reject it only because of our primitive cowardice and childish fear of the dark.

― H.P. Lovecraft , Collected Essays 5: Philosophy, Autobiography and Miscellany

"

― H.P. Lovecraft , Collected Essays 5: Philosophy, Autobiography and Miscellany

4 " De modo que el buscador de paraísos no es mas que una víctima de mitos establecidos o de su propia imaginación. "
