... we're the children of Dionysus, floating by in a barrel, accepting nobody's authority. We're on the side of those who don't offer final answers of transcendent truths[...]


There are architects of Apollonian equilibrium in this world, and there are (punk) singers of flux and transformation. One is not better than the other[...] Only our cooperation can ensure the continuity of Heraclitus's vision: "This world has always been and will always be a pulsing fire, flaring up accordingly, and dying down accordingly, with the cycling of the eternal world breath"'.


[...] a person does a lot more doubting than a plucked cock does. And these are the people I love - the Dionysians, the unmediated ones, those drawn to what's different and new, seeking movement and inspiration over dogmas and immutable statutes. The innocents, in other words, the speakers of truth.


Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, from her letters to Zizek
