Klaus Kinski

I am not a role model. I am a warning.

I am a dream. I am a nightmare. I am a human being.

I don't need applause. I need silence.

I am not a saint. I am a sinner. And I am proud of it.

I am a whisper. I am a scream. I am a human being.

I don't want to be loved. I want to be alive.

I am not a prisoner. I am a king.

I am a beginning. I am an end. I am a human being.

I don't need a stage. I need the world.

I am not a clown. I am a tragedy.

I am a question. I am an answer. I am a human being.

I don't fear death. I fear not living.

I am a miracle. I am a curse. I am a human being.

I don't need a mirror. I have my eyes.

I am not a shadow. I am the light. And the darkness.

I am a paradox. I am a contradiction. I am a human being.

I don't want to be understood. I want to be experienced.

I am not a puppet. I am the puppeteer.

I am a scream into the void. And the void screams back.

I don't need a reason to live. I just live.
