I didn't learn stories, I just absorbed them. (Quote by - Donald Davis)

It is almost impossible to be a doctor and an honest man, but it is obscenely impossible to be a psychiatrist without at the same time bearing the stamp of the most incontestable madness: that of being unable to resist that old atavistic reflex of the mass of humanity, which makes any man of science who is absorbed by this mass a kind of natural and inborn enemy of all genius. (Quote by - Antonin Artaud)

Theology is less and less about God and God's world, and more and more a department of ancient history, absorbed in minute details of historical and literary criticism. The whole business is wildly out of proportion. (Quote by - O. Fielding Clarke)

I`ve got to do something to make up for all those self-absorbed and selfish years when I just, you know, was taking drugs, sitting in my room, doing bad things, whatever. (Quote by - Elton John)


Every writer is a narcissist. This does not mean that he is vain; it only means that he is hopelessly self-absorbed. (Quote by - Rosten, Leo)


One cannot long remain so absorbed in contemplation of emptiness without being increasingly attracted to it. In vain one bestows on it the name of infinity; this does not change its nature. When one feels such pleasure in non-existence, one's inclination can be completely satisfied only by completely ceasing to exist. (Quote by - Emile Durkheim)


It was stumbling on to really the bible of the blues, you know, and a very powerful drug to be introduced to us and I absorbed it totally, and it changed my complete outlook on music. Eric Clapton. (Quote by - Eric Clapton)
