"The nights you fight best are when all the weapons are pointed at you, when all the voices hurl their insults, while the dream is being strangled. The nights you fight best are when reason gets kicked in the gut, when the chariots of gloom encircle you... The nights you fight best are on a night like this, as you chase a thousand dark rats from your brain, as you rise up against the impossible, as you become a brother to the tender sister of joy and move on, regardless," Charles Bukowski (German-born American poet, novelist, and short story writer).
