Lydia Lunch
“The evidence of death is before my eyes constantly. Moving from me outward. My death always a step in advance. The world is a mirror of myself dying. The world not dying anymore than I die. I more alive a hundred years from now. Than at this very moment.”
Lydia Lunch

Gilles Deleuze
“Although it is true that this counterthought attests to an absolute solitude, it is an extremely populous solitude, like the desert itself, a solitude already intertwined with a people to come, one that invokes and awaits that people, existing only through it, though it is not yet here.”

Gilles Deleuze & Félix Guattari, A Thousand Plateaus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia, translated by Brian Massumi, University of Minnesota Press, 1987, p. 377.”
Gilles Deleuze, Anti-Oedipus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia
