Nothing in all the world is so nonsensical and contradictory, save mortals, that is, who live in the grip of the superstitions of the past.

But death we are, and death have always been.

As for oblivion, well, we can wait a little while for that.

The worst takes its time to come, and then to pass.

Pandora (1998)

The truth is, laughter always sounds more perfect than weeping. Laughter flows in a violent riff and is effortlessly melodic. Weeping is often fought, choked, half strangled, or surrendered to with humiliation.

You do have a story inside you; it lies articulate and waiting to be written — behind your silence and your suffering.

Pandora (1998)
