“Being cocket or cockeyed is being cockamamie.”
“A cocket gal and a cockeyed guy should not go to a cocktail lounge, they should get to the cockaigne.”
“I was like a clock that had exploded- my springs were hanging out, my hands were cockeyed, and my numbers were falling off.”
“But then I had long mistaken being spoiled for being strong, being defiant for being independent, being reckless for being brave.”
“Being is. Being is in-itself. Being is what it is.”
“The bond between being and non-being can be only internal. It is within being qua being that non-being must arise, and within non-being that being must spring up; and this relation can not be a fact, a natural law, but an upsurge of the being which is its own nothingness of being.”
