Citas morbosas

  Evelyn Underhill

  Inspirational, Sorry, Apology

  Evelyn Underhill, Carol Poston (2010). “The Making of a Mystic: New and Selected Letters of Evelyn Underhill”, p.113, University of Illinois Press

• Así que te vas de donde tenías miedo. Algunos se quedan; otros se van; es una gran diferencia, dejar las humillaciones de la infancia, el miedo morboso. No teníamos mucho que decirnos, los que nos íbamos y los que nos quedábamos. Los niños se avergüenzan del miedo, pero eso no se lo puedes decir a los adultos; no les importa. Convierten a los niños en cosas muertas como ellos. Si queda algo vivo en ti, huyes. Huyes de la pobre niña de rodillas; el miedo quemó la piel; sigue de rodillas, muerta, cruda y tierna.

  Andrea Dworkin

• There is a struggle inside you between these two parts. It's as if at times your heart becomes a battlefield! The secret part, full of light, seems so small and weak in the face of the discouraging and morbid part, which seems enormous and overwhelming. However, if you light a small candle in a dark room, everything is lit up. It is a matter of trusting in this little light in the deepest part of your being which can gradually chase away the darkness.

  Jean Vanier

• It is all well and good for children and acid freaks to believe in Santa Claus - but it is still a profoundly morbid day for us working professionals. It is unsettling to know that one out of every twenty people you meet on Xmas will be dead this time next year.... Some people can accept this, and some can't. That is why God made whiskey, and also why Wild Turkey comes in $300 shaped canisters during most of the Christmas season...

• Así como debe haber moderación en otras cosas, también debe haberla en la autocrítica. La contemplación perpetua de nuestras propias acciones produce una conciencia mórbida, muy distinta de la conciencia normal que acompaña a las acciones correctas realizadas espontáneamente; y de un estado de equilibrio inestable mantenido durante mucho tiempo por el esfuerzo, puede producirse una caída hacia el equilibrio estable, en el que la naturaleza primitiva se reafirma. Por lo tanto, puede producirse un retroceso en lugar de una progresión.

  Herbert Spencer

• One can't write a weird story of real power without perfect psychological detachment from the human scene, and a magic prism of imagination which suffuses them and style alike with that grotesquerie and disquieting distortion characteristic of morbid vision. Only a cynic can create horror - for behind every masterpiece of the sort must reside a driving daemonic force that despises the human race and its illusions, and longs to pull them to pieces and mock them.

  H. P. Lovecraft

  Real, Writing, Race

  Letter to "Weird Tales" editor Edwin Baird, printed in "Weird Tales" 3, no. 3 (March 1924); Quoted in "Lord of a Visible World: An Autobiography in Letters" edited by S. T. Joshi, (p. 122), 2000.

• It is a very curious thing about superstition. One would expect that the man who had once seen his morbid dreams were not fulfilled would abandon them for the future; but on the contrary they grow even stronger just as the love of gambling increases in a man who has once lost in a lottery.
