“Dionysus does not

explain or regret
anything. He is
pleased

if he can cause you to perform,
despite your plan,
despite your politics,

despite your neuroses,
despite even your Dionysian theories of self,
something quite previous,

the desire
before the desire,
the lick of beginning to know you don’t know.

If life is a stage,
that is the show.
Exit Dionysus.”
― Anne Carson, The Bacchae

“And remember kids, the next time that somebody tells you, "The government wouldn't do that," oh yes they would.”
― Wendigoon

“Oh God, I wish you were not on this earth, but entirely within me, or rather that I were not on this earth, but entirely within you; I feel there is one too many of us; the separation into two people is unbearable.”
― Franz Kafka

“Behold the portrait of our mortality”
― Hélène Cixous, Stigmata: Escaping Texts
