“I began to understand that the most worthwhile obsession is an obsession that is actually independent of the object of fixation. The object is only borrowed as a pretext, a means, an environment, through which or in which the obsessed person can project his own eternal and essential hunger, thus fulfilling the requirements of death--the dissolution of the ego for something, anything, that exists independently outside of one's self. Perhaps that obsession should be controlled. At some point the most mundane catalyst, a skirt or fallen leaf, is enough to provoke a series of captivating chain reactions, while at another time much more important objects will inspire only an absurd indifference.”
Phạm Thị Hoài“I am obsessed with not being obsessed with acquiring material things.”
Mokokoma Mokhonoana“All the great stories are about obsession and people who are obsessed.”
Marty Rubin“All the great novels are about obsession and people who are obsessed.”
Marty Rubin“Did I love her? No. I obsessed over her completely. And thank heavens I was obsessed. Obsession, infatuation, is something short-lived. A sweet fever dream that leaves you exhausted from the high. Love is perpetual. Love is an entire world compared to that other form of mania people mistake love for. If love is loving the reality of a person, obsession is idealising the fantasy of another. Did I love her? No. Never. But I was utterly obsessed.”
F.K. Preston, The Artist, The Audience and a Man Called Nothing“I was told I have obsessive behavioral traits. I looked up everything to do with obsession after that.”
Willow Madison, We Were One Once“Be a little less obsessed with how I live my life and a little more obsessed with how you live your own.”
Dan Pearce, Single Dad Laughing“There's never been a culture that wasn't obsessed with food. The sort of sad thing is that our obsession is no longer with food, but with the price of food.”
Jonathan Safran Foer
