The rich are inebriate in another way and cannot contrive to grasp these frenzied longings for security. To be rich is another form of intoxication: it spells forgetfulness. In fact, that is what one wants riches for: to forget. (Louis-Ferdinand Céline)
Our French Republic is no more than a great gullet swallowing the negroizing of the French at the command of the Jews. Our governors are a clique of sadistic yids and yellow-bellied masons sworn to swallow us up, to bastardize us further, to boil us down by all the grotesque, primitive means of inter-mixture, part negro, part yellow, part white, part red, part monkey, part Jewish, part everything.

Louis-Ferdinand Céline
The one thing any of us really cared about was living for one more hour, one more hour is a big deal in a world where everything has reduced itself to murder. View quote
Louis-Ferdinand Céline
Hate gave birth to the slang; Slang (‘argot') exists not anymore. View quote
Louis-Ferdinand Céline

Louis-Ferdinand Céline
The judeo-Americans are notorious idiots, bellylanding in foolishness: look at Roosevelt, Otto Khan, Morgenthau, Filene, Barush, Rosenthal...Observe these cunts. View quote
Louis-Ferdinand Céline

Louis-Ferdinand Céline
I should give all the works of Baudelaire for a female Olympic swimmer. View quote
Louis-Ferdinand Céline
Your system of producing wealth, factories, mines, cooperatives will fall apart, like everything else, under the attacks of the people, in the delirious, popular boulimia. View quote
Louis-Ferdinand Céline
You can be a virgin in horror the same as in sex. (Louis-Ferdinand Céline)
The populace is a true museum of all the stupidities of the ages: it swallows everything, it admires everything, it preserves everything, it defends everything, it understands nothing. View quote
Louis-Ferdinand Céline
Spiritually we are at ground zero, sunk, bored to perdition. All our arts prove it. Since the renaissance, so mechanized, we repeat with almost futile variants the same hackneyed sentimentalities (we call them eternal values!) Love! Re-love No Love! More Love! View quote
Louis-Ferdinand Céline
Since the end of the period of belief, leaders exalt every defect, every kind of sadism, and gain all the more through their vices: vanity, ambition, war, death in a word. View quote
Louis-Ferdinand Céline
[Industrialized man, drunk on alcohol and gasoline, becomes a confusion of sheep, bull and hyena. ] Charming. The least obstructed little asshole looks on himself in the mirror as Jupiter. [18]. View quote
Louis-Ferdinand Céline

Louis-Ferdinand Céline
As far as they were concerned, gunfire was nothing but noise. That's why wars can keep going. Even the people who make them, who fight in them, don't really get the picture. Even with a bullet in their gut, they'd go on picking up old shoes that "might come in handy.” The way a sheep, lying on its side in a meadow, will keep on grazing with its dying breath. Most people don't die until the last moment; others start twenty years in advance, sometimes more. Those are the unfortunates. View quote
Louis-Ferdinand Céline
The rich don't have to kill to eat. View quote
Louis-Ferdinand Céline
{Music symbolizes the loss of faith, of common belief. ] The small, intimate church is closed, the organs are dead, it is sadder than before. Only those whom fate designs for the eternal mass of infinite love remain. They compose only a very small chapel of clarity in space and time. View quote
Louis-Ferdinand Céline
[The fascist states want no war] Why? Because the fascist states realize before our very eyes, among Aryans, without gold, without Jews, without Freemasons, the famous socialist program, of which the communists have had their mugs full and have never brought off. [100]. View quote
Louis-Ferdinand Céline
You [Jews] terrify no one. The sun sinks, you swank about to the right, to the left. Europe forms up against you. (Louis-Ferdinand Céline)
To be or not to be" Aryan? That is the question! And nothing more! All the doctrines concerning the absence of Race, concerning the vast racial confusion, all the spreading of racial jumbling at full pace, the esperanto-ism of the anus "Romain Rolland style," resulting in the greatest fornicating Babel are no more than destructive foul tricks, all emerging from the same Talmudic shop: "To the destruction of the Whites.

God is being repaired. View quote
Louis-Ferdinand Céline
The poetry of heroism appeals irresistibly to those who don't go to a war, and even more to those whom the war is making enormously wealthy. It's always so. View quote
Louis-Ferdinand Céline
Life is filigree work. What is written clearly is not worth much, it's the transparency that counts. View quote
