/lit/ - Literature

I'm quitting my job in 4 months and I can't wait.
Makes work easiers, knowing you're going to stop soon anyway.
I look forward to having a NEET lifestyle temporarily like I used to have. It's all for a good goal though, I'm not quitting because of laziness. Although I will enjoy being lazy for a period.

>tfw Nietzsche was 100% wrong and God is calling you

>It's been hopeless for a long time, from the very beginning. You will never represent, anon, a young girl's erotic dream. You have to resign yourself to the inevitable; such things are not for you. It's already too late, in any case. The sexual failure you've known since your adolescence, anon, the frustration that has followed you since the age of thirteen, will leave their indelible mark. Even supposing that you might have women in the future - which in all frankness I doubt - this will not be enough; nothing will ever be enough. You will always be an orphan to those adolescent loves you never knew. In you the wound is already deep; it will get deeper and deeper. An atrocious, unremitting bitterness will end up gripping your heart. For you there will be neither redemption nor deliverance. That's how it is.

This nigger is as obsessed with sunlight as I am with anal. I think if he's very eager, then he could establish a new fetish where sunlight highlights the tight bodies of women and nothing else.

Perfect. I read it a couple of months ago and it was fantastic, exactly like your described. Democracy is truly a horrendous system, and since society has been democratized for decades, the fallacy of "My ignorance is as important as your knowledge" fits more than ever.

Indeed, finally a quality thread on /lit/.

Hate to break it to ya, but Dostoyevsky was a devoted Christian Orthodox, and all his world literature novels revolve around how salvation is gained through God, and only God alone.

Interesting in what sense? Is it still good food for thought regarding excessive consumerism?

How do I break the cycle
>tfw you have thought up multiple fantasies about a better version of you

How in the hell do I get back into reading? I am trying to read Faulkner's Absalom Absalom! right now, and as I'm reading the text, I'm not absorbing or understanding any of it.

I used to read a lot back in high school, but I haven't read a full novel since I was 19. How do I get out of this rut?

I'm just sitting here reading the text, absorbing nothing and I keep thinking to myself, "what the fuck am I reading?".

Help me...

> tfw got really good A Level results
