Joe Koch
“Yes, I would like to eat him alive. Not literally. I’m not a cannibal. Haven’t the taste for it, though I don’t condemn those who do. I support all forms of decadence, though I rarely cross the line into participatory theatrics. As a dedicated spectator, I would very much like to preside over his spiritual disassembly, to see him taken apart, break him in with sensational ardor, and rewire his tragic undertone. With his full permission, of course.”
― Joe Koch, Dead Boys Don’t Cry
