Top 10 most inspiring quotes by Martin Amis

  • Love is an abstract noun, something nebulous. And yet love turns out to be the only part of us that is solid, as the world turns upside down and the screen goes black.
  • And meanwhile time goes about its immemorial work of making everyone look and feel like shit.
  • Closure is a greasy little word which, moreover, describes a nonexistent condition. The truth, Venus, is that nobody gets over anything.
  • The universe is a million billion light-years wide, and every inch of it would kill you if you went there. This is the position of the universe with regards to human life.
  • He awoke at six, as usual. He needed no alarm clock. He was already comprehensively alarmed.
  • Love might have expanded her. But we are not all of us going to get loved. We are not all of us going to get expanded.
  • My life looked good on paper – where, in fact, almost all of it was being lived.
  • When a man conclusively exalts one woman, and one woman only, “above all others,” you can be pretty sure you are dealing with a misogynist. It frees him up for thinking the rest are shit.
  • When you’ve lost all your play, guess what love becomes. Work. Work that gets harder every hour.
  • Money doesn’t mind if we say it’s evil, it goes from strength to strength. It’s a fiction, an addiction, and a tacit conspiracy.
