Cantata of the warrior woman, Daragang Magayon: An epic
|
|
“After a while, she murmurs, "What does it mean... what is it to be American?" The question stuns him. That he doesn't know how to answer stuns him more. Or maybe he doesn't know the answer. Maybe certainty is impossible. We're only as real as what we do and what is done to us in the moment; knowing comes much later, if it comes at all. We're jostled by too many acts that we choose to forget.”

“desire is bigger than anything that can fill it. Desire is a house with infinite extensions”
