Joy Sorman

“You have to like the animals that teach us how to die because we’re all going to die the same death, no one will be spared, animals tell us there’s no way out, for them like for us, we’re all corpses in the end. They also teach us how to live, in excess, since beasts are man’s fever: we will suffer just like them, we’re large cuts of raw beef, our bodies escape us, slip between our fingers, slip out of our awareness.”
― Joy Sorman, Tenderloin

“Snakes, flies, and moles don’t have eyelashes and so we don’t love them, we don’t go near them, we don’t pet them.”
