A personal attack is a form of social interaction in a negative manner, and many will always find it much more enjoyable than social interaction in a positive manner.

It always produces much moral satisfaction in society to enable a highly educated young man to become a bonded warehouseman.

It is a general rule of being a social moron that a social moron does not know he is a social moron, but thinks it’s to do with other people’s viewpoints.

If from the start you know that you’re dealing with a bunch of primates in The Monkey House, you won’t be surprised too much by what they get up to at feeding time.

Most people would like to use some type of “frighteners” at some time in their lives, these range from kitchen knives, knuckle dusters, pickaxe handles, machetes, yo-yos and sawn off shot-guns; and some people will use them too, usually without a moment’s hesitation.

Normal people in society will always attack the interests of those strange individuals who insist on looking like Nosferatu, as they don’t like the idea of being bit.

Physically ugly people can really enjoy seeing the beautiful people screw up, as then they can feel that the world is a fairer place because of it, and it is.

Most people will do an inordinate amount of damage to others without even thinking twice about it; which probably just means that they don’t need to.

A sarcastic wit in polite society can occasionally go too far, and so he becomes a sarcastic twit; but then he may not notice it, because everyone’s obviously too polite to say so.

How does someone make an everyday moral decision? He makes it in a poor, slapdash manner, and then, if he survives it, he just does it again.

To grasp the nettle firmly you must also feel its pain at being grasped, although, in doing so, it can still be quite painful.

Vanity must be a very cosy thing when you feel it completely justified by your pleasures.

Make more of nonsense gained through misunderstanding, so you can appreciate making sense even better than it deserves.

The human mind in action can be seen as a series of pre-programmed conditioned responses to change, although most people wouldn’t know why anybody would want to see it that way, especially without a good reason.

If you’re not fighting hard enough today you need to fight harder; if you can’t do that, well, perhaps you should find an easier pace of battle.

Just do as you wish, as nobody else could be bothered enough to do it for you anyway.

The politics of envy keep the Porsches out of the hands of the proletariat, and it’s a good thing too, especially if they’ve just been polished.

Shoeshine boys must swear blue murder about you behind your back, and so long as they do a good job with the polish who gives a damn?

Sometimes, painting the truth black for fun is the only thing that brings out its essential meaning in Technicolor.

Opinions need to be clarified before you can make mincemeat out of them.

If you truly want to “live life to the full before you die,” do you really know what that means, or are you just too afraid to find out?

What you need to combat life is a correct philosophy; once you have achieved this nothing can stop you, except death.

Some people will like to walk about with iron bars in their hands as it’s all the better to hit you with––and you wouldn’t think you’d deserve it would you?

Your peers are always looking to you to say something inanely stupid, so as to mark you out from others; the trick is to not say it to them directly and move more in with the crowd instead.

If you do manage to say something inanely stupid over nothing in particular of relevance you’ll be left wondering why you said it. It’s the thing no one forgets and everyone will mark you by.

It’s always best to run with the crowd, as in this way it’s unlikely that you’ll be singled out before they catch up with someone else trying to be a real individual.

There are some people who, to your determent, will like to pass moral judgement on every single act you make. While there are others who simply don’t give a damn, but think it anyway just to keep their minds ticking over.

People enjoy commenting on what other people are doing with their time, but more often than not it just gets nasty.

Sometimes, you can throw a mangy dog a bone and he will be content to gnaw at it until his teeth wear down.

Memories will increase to haunt the footsteps of the has-beens, and blister the souls of the don’t haves.

Highly intelligent individuals often tend to look down on the plebs for being ignorant, because they are.

Some men, if they fail at something, will immediately go on to do something else; while other men, without finding that sense of direction in themselves, will simply decide to sit down and die of boredom.

In your chosen walk of life you have no automatic right to be told the truth; however, that does not mean you cannot look for it yourself in your spare time.

Many men are flummoxed by the sincerity behind an unreasoned belief—and that’s a good one!

What is an unacceptable insult from a friend is not from a friend, and that’s true. However, having said that, he may just have a warped sense of humour when drunk.

Those who can tell you you’re taking up somebody else’s place may occasionally be right; but the question is are they being helpful or not?

Psychopaths should definitely be avoided, but then how do you know whom to avoid? As mostly it only becomes apparent when it’s too late and you’ve already hit them with a brick.

If you push the limits of your environment on the human level you can get a punch in the face for it, but it’ll probably be worth the effort.

What can always be used on you is moral condemnation by the majority, what you could then use on them then is a pickaxe handle.

Life has a lie hidden deep within it that is inherent to its makeup, while only a gullible fool thinks about this truth of life later.

The great strength of a woman’s character in comparison to a man’s lies in the fact that she has men to laugh at, if not with.

In the social arena, a fine woman has a nose for a dominant male, and a sniff for anyone else.

Where young women are concerned, it is usually quite dangerous for older men to be lechers, but it’s probably more interesting.

Some young women are natural born fuckers, and, come to think of it, they look like it as well.

There is such a thing as a hardened woman, she having no mercy, no doubt, no pity and no shame when she has the goal in sight, and she is as playful as a little kitten.

In polite society people seldom use bad language, but merely think it; however, you can generally tell what they’re thinking by their expression. Strong emotions tell as a facial tick which drums out a vital message in Morse code. However, they won’t usually say a word.

Social interaction is what people do to get what they want out of society, irrespective of whether they actually enjoy it or not. You may ask, “How does a man get a nose for something?” And then, “How can this preposterous proboscis be used to best effect?” Or then again, maybe you won’t.

Greed, sloth, wroth, pride, envy, lust, gluttony––it takes a lot of doing, but you too can master them all, provided that you can realize exactly what they are useful for in society in time to make a difference.

You may on occasion come to ask of someone close to you: “Well, what can I do about such and such a problem?” While if he or she says nothing, then you’re probably just talking to the wrong person entirely.

If you just got the heart and stuffing and fire kicked out of you, well then, if you ever had it you only live once you know.

In a violent conflict it is an amusement that the intelligent man can bleed just as much as any uneducated buffoon; but really, the intelligent man should know better than to put himself in that position.

The most useful, tenacious tool for a person is to be able to step back, and have a derisory opinion of another person and use that insight to form a clearer perception of what is actually happening around him.

If you have the personified characteristics of a tobacco store Indian people will fear you even if you’re harmless; and you know what people do to what they fear.

There are people who don’t get what they want; they are your natural born enemy, even if you’ve never seen them before in your entire life.

Occasionally, people who want to be your friend just say that so they can get to destroy you from the inside. But who are they and what do they look like? That’s the question.

What is unacceptable from a friend is not from a friend, and that’s true. However, having said that, he may just have a warped sense of humour when drunk.

Ageing is a push-me pull-you of an event, in which you’re nearer the age you have just passed, and nearer still to the age you will next be, and yet so near to the present time that you can almost taste it slipping away.

Those who have their whole life ahead of them should not be interfered with by those who haven’t, or, for that matter, anyone else either.

You live, you compete; you die, you don’t.

If you’re very unlucky you may eventually come to think: “What the fuck am I looking at?” And you still won’t know before it’s too late.

Any move that emotionally distresses you is a mistake that you should try to avoid, but it’s still amazing how so many people still don’t understand this one simple fact.

You have a duty to the truth, if only to yourself; after all, who wants to live with your lies?

In the vicious survival tactics of the schoolyard, one good joke amongst good friends always deserves another, possibly even more brutal one.

It is a little recognized fact that those who are servants and those who are waiters aren’t generally those who should know better than that.

If you feel you have any duties to perform towards other people, then you really need to realize what they are first through empathy.

Whenever someone insists on saying, “The greatest satisfaction to me is for people to hear what I am saying.” Then his motives must be suspect.

As a weapon of choice for the intelligent man politeness is all very well, but when it comes time to gut his enemies it still remains ineffective.

Men use mutual praise in the process of male bonding. How much you believe it is up to you, it is necessary only for a man to show it consistently.

Being inoffensive is a matter of good manners, but is something not many intelligent men will manage to achieve with any consistency.

Conversation is the art of talking to yourself to an audience; while if you care to listen attentively to yourself in conversation you’ll find you’ve heard that story at least half a dozen times before, and you didn’t like it all that much the first time.

Most people, if they talk to you at all, will only talk about subjects that interest them, and so have instantly limited themselves to a type of social life that only their immediate audience ever approves of.

You can find that there are men who try to chat you up in a casual conversation; the only thing to do there is to talk louder and longer than them, as, obviously, it’s simply a contest of wills.

If you expect to sustain your spirit amid the crowd you should also bear in mind the effects of your actions, both on yourself and on others.

Are you ever sure that when you know something about somebody you are quite so sure about it? Or just sure enough to be sure of the consequences?

Those that work for their own benefit among those that also work for their own benefit will also tend to exploit each other, but not necessarily for each other’s benefit.

If you are a simple man you deserve anything you get lumbered with, while if you are a clever man you deserve to get it twice as much.

Given time, life presents a series of lost abilities; thus it follows that you should best perceive how to use these abilities to the best before they too disappear.

If you do come to think that you’re just possibly making a big mistake, drop it quick and walk off, before it blows up in your face.

Think, while you’re doing nothing in particular, that you’re a long time dead, and that’s a fair amount of time to do nothing in particular in…

Boredom is being without a reason to do something interesting, and doing that instead just for something to do.

Some people’s handwriting is a credit to copperplate, some isn’t, but then all these people who write illegible scrawl should always be complimented on their legibility, so as to encourage them.

I once heard of a man who liked to talk about it, and talk about it, but never did it, and eventually went and did something else entirely; and to this day he never did it.

There is theoretical bullshit, and there is common or garden bullshit; and you can change one into the other by going from the universal to the general and back again.

Reconsidering the rightness of things once in a while doesn’t make you wrong, although it does make you further open to attack from those who know better.

The world is in dire need of a hero––always has been and always will be––so as to be able to cut him down to size before he gets too big for his boots.

If it turns out that you do go for what you want but can’t seem to get it, laugh a little over it, and then go after what you want in some other manner.

If, inadvertently, a friend stabs you in the back, don’t be too confused by his actions, as it’s quite obvious to anybody but a fool that you must have something he wants.

Utter psychopaths clearly have one redeeming feature to them: how to recognize a valued enemy at the appropriate moment.

It is apparent that men seek the approval of their peers or they do not survive long alone in the wilderness, especially without a cuddle from their mothers.

If you can’t do as you’re told, somebody is going to have to come and tell you what to do.

You should learn what you might need to know; but nobody can make you do that, except maybe yourself.

It is correct to say that if you ignore a minor obligation in situations where a good observance of minor obligations is required, then you could be kicked out over it, and you’ll say to yourself: “That was a bit much!” and you’d be right too.

The correct use of conversation is where the medium becomes the message; and so, the message becomes the medium.

Smile, and (assuming you’ve still got all your original teeth) the world smiles back at you.

Laughter, most anthropologists agree, was originally a subservience gesture among primates; and so, it looks like the cheeky monkeys haven’t got far with it yet then.

It may not be the case that older people like to see young men fail completely, but somehow it is more likely that they do like to see them make complete fools of themselves instead.

It is fair to say that you know differently when you’re young from when you’re old, but by that time it’s just too late.

Without the correct information to analyse it with, what you think is occurring at the present time will never correlate exactly with what is actually occurring, unless you just happen to be being run over at the same time by a bus that’s full of eyewitnesses.

As for whatever triviality you choose to remember, there’s always a lot more that you don’t choose to forget.
