“Sometimes I think of atoms as tiny people who are extremely scared and hold hands with each other a lot. I imagine that my body is made of tiny, scared people, and they pick up mugs and books, which are made of other tiny, scared people. And when you sex someone it's just lots of tiny, scared people holding hands.
I think about the tiny people that are me and I feel less alone.
I'm an army of tiny people, trying their best.”

Hugabee Headquarters.

“Todo cae donde la gravedad quiere que caiga porque está esperando para fundirse de nuevo con la tierra y volver en forma de perros y oro y flores. Lo aprendimos en el colegio. A menos que apliques electricidad rápidamente en las tetas, una persona muerta está muerta.”
