It's too early for Hegel (but too late to stop drinkin')

“The question is can you cure the disease before it kills you? Once you set out consciously to cure the disease, as I did even before I knew the word cancer, you run the risk of catching it. Comprende? Whatever you set your mind to, your personal total obsession, this is what kills you. Poetry kills you if you’re a poet, and so on. People choose their death whether they know it or not”.

So, I've chosen to die of literature, music, alcohol and male beauty??? Why is death sometimes so complex, being in itself a simple thing?? Dunno. Gotta keep drinking, writing and fucking to find out!
