Jeff Buckley – your mind becomes completely empty

"Apparently orgasm is the only point where your mind becomes completely empty, you think of nothing for that second. That's why it's so compelling, it's a tiny taste of death. Your mind is void, you have nothing in your head save white light. Nothing save that white light and 'YES!', which is fantastic. Just knowing 'Yes.'"

- Jeff Buckley

Chuck Palahniuk – real personal adventure

"You realize that people take drugs because it's the only real personal adventure left to them in their time-constrained, law-and-order, property-lined world. It's only in drugs or death we'll see anything new, and death is just too controlling."

- Chuck Palahniuk

"It haunts me, all this crazy stuff. Every day of my life has been an event. I took lethal combinations of booze and drugs for thirty fucking years. I survived a direct hit by a plane, suicidal overdoses, STDs. I've been accused of attempted murder. Then I almost died while riding over a bump on a quad bike at fucking two miles per hour."

- Ozzy Osbourne, after he had crashed his quad bike and broken his neck

Oliver Reed – The death of a badass

Decadent Lifestyle — Mon, 03 Jan 2011 20:01:58 +0000

Oliver Reed was a hellraiser who relished every opportunity to drink all up to his final moment. During a break from filming Gladiator, where he played the slavemaster, Reed died of a heart attack in a bar on May 2 in 1999. This after beating five Royal Navy sailors at arm-wrestling. Not only were the sailors much younger than him, but Reed was also piss drunk at the time. During his final bar trip, the 61-year-old actor consumed three bottles of Captain Morgan, eight bottles of German beer, and several doubles of Famous Grouse whiskey. The bar where it all happened was called "The Pub" and has since then added "Ollie's Last Pub" to their sign.

Oliver Reed, you were a badass, and for that we salute you.
