Prestel Publishing, Jonathan Meese: Fraulein Atlantis“I have schizophrenia. I am not schizophrenia. I am not my mental illness. My illness is a part of me.”
Jonathan Harnisch, Jonathan Harnisch: An Alibiography“How simple it is to acknowledge that all the worry in the world could not control the future. How simple it is to see that we can only be happy now, and that there will never be a time when it is not now.”
Jonathan Harnisch, Jonathan Harnisch: An Alibiography“You’ve got to reach bedrock to become depressed enough before you are forced to accept the reality and enormity of the problem.”
Jonathan Harnisch, Jonathan Harnisch: An Alibiography“Jonathan Seagull discovered that boredom and fear and anger are the reasons that a gull's life is so short, and with those gone from his thought, he lived a long fine life indeed.”
Richard Bach, Jonathan Livingston Seagull“A moment later Jonathan’s body wavered in the air, shimmering, and began to go transparent. “Don’t let them spread silly rumors about me, or make me a god. O.K., Fletch? I’m a seagull. I like to fly, maybe…”
Richard Bach, Jonathan Livingston Seagull“You will begin to touch heaven, Jonathan, in the moment that you touch perfect speed. And that isn’t flying a thousand miles an hour, or a million, or flying at the speed of light. Because any number is a limit, and perfection doesn’t have limits. Perfect speed, my son, is being there.”
Richard Bach, Jonathan Livingston Seagull“I have no cause to love Mr. Norrell- far from it. But I know this about him: he is a magician first and everything else second- and Jonathan is the same. Books and magic are all either of them really care about.”
Susanna Clarke, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell“I've lived my life fighting to overcome but still yet the troubles I face, may never end in this endless race.”
Jonathan Anthony Burkett“He asked me, "what were the usual causes or motives that made one country go to war with another?" I answered "they were innumerable; but I should only mention a few of the chief. Sometimes the ambition of princes, who never think they have land or people enough to govern; sometimes the corruption of ministers, who engage their master in a war, in order to stifle or divert the clamour of the subjects against their evil administration. Difference in opinions has cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether the juice of a certain berry be blood or wine; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire: what is the best colour for a coat, whether black, white, red, or gray: and whether it should be long or short, narrow or wide, dirty or clean; with many more. Neither are any wars so furious and bloody, or of so long a continuance, especially if it be in things indifferent.”
Jonathan Swift
