"“The process of civilization becoming less centralized and less authoritarian has created modes of expression in which the burden of assigning meaning and value resides wholly within the colloquy of beholders… So, today, we all acknowledge that, when we argue about art, we are arguing about the use, value, and meaning of objects that have no power, value, or meaning beyond those we attribute to them.”" — Mar 06, 2026 08:03PM

"“There isn’t a story to tell, because a relationship is a story you construct together and take up residence in, a story as sheltering as a house. You invent this story of how your destinies were made to entwine like porch vines… how who you think you are becomes a factor of who you think he is and who he thinks you are, a castle in the clouds made out of the moist air exhaled by dreamers.”" — Mar 02, 2026 01:49PM
