The concept of absurdity is something I'm attracted to.

Basically, at the very bottom of life, which seduces us all, there is only absurdity, and more absurdity. And maybe that's what gives us our joy for living, because the only thing that can defeat absurdity is lucidity.

Absurdity, n.: A statement or belief manifestly inconsistent with one's own opinion.

Absurdity is what I like most in life, and there's humor in struggling in ignorance. If you saw a man repeatedly running into a wall until he was a bloody pulp, after a while it would make you laugh because it becomes absurd.

Life may be not only meaningless but absurd.

When people conclude that all is futile, then the absurd becomes the norm.

I like being absurd. Being silly.

The absurd is the essential concept and the first truth.

I think what human beings need is to be able to laugh at the absurd, hold on to ambiguity, and learn to love nuance, instead of making everything one or the other, and structurally, so much of the Internet and online publishing doesn't have room for any of that.

The deeper the experience of an absence of meaning - in other words, of absurdity - the more energetically meaning is sought.
