Childlike Life of the Black Tarantula Quotes

“I marry Colonel William D. Fair, a lawyer. Lawyers tell you what’s wrong, what’s right. The colonel shows me that if I don’t do what he wants, he’ll kill himself. Phooey. Two years later he shoots himself in the head with a Colt six-shooter. Am I supposed to feel guilty? Second fantasy.”
― Kathy Acker, Childlike Life of the Black Tarantula

“I'm sick of this society. 'Earn a living' as if I'm not yet living; lobotomized and robotized from birth, they tell me I can't do anything I want to do in the subtlest and sneakiest ways possible.”
― Kathy Acker, Childlike Life of the Black Tarantula
