The Laramie Project and The Laramie Project Quotes

“But it is that kind of a town. If it wasn’t this kind of a town why did this happen here? I mean you know what I mean, like—that’s a lie. Because it happened here. So how could it not be a town where this kind of thing happens? Like, that’s just totally—like, looking at an Escher painting and getting all confused, like, it’s just totally circular logic like how can you even say that? And we have to mourn this and we have to be sad that we live in a town, a state, a country where shit like this happens. I mean, these are people trying to distance themselves from this crime. And we need to own this crime. I feel. Everyone needs to own it. We are like this. We arelike this. We are like this.”
― Moisés Kaufman, The Laramie Project and The Laramie Project: Ten Years Later
