Camille Paglia
“[W]earisome as it may seem, women must realize that, in making a commitment to a man, they have merged in his unconscious with his mother and have therefore inherited the ambivalence of that relationship.”
Camille Paglia, Sexual Personae: Art and Decadence from Nefertiti to Emily Dickinson

Robert Anton Wilson
“Belief is the death of intelligence. As soon as one believes a doctrine of any sort, or assumes certitude, one stops thinking about that aspect of existence.”
Robert Anton Wilson, Cosmic Trigger: Die letzten Geheimnisse der Illuminaten oder An den Grenzen des erweiterten Bewusstseins

Anne Carson
“Myths are stories about people who become too big for their lives temporarily, so that they crash into other lives or brush against gods. In crisis their souls are visible.”
Anne Carson, Grief Lessons: Four Plays by Euripides

Anne Carson
“To feel anything
deranges you. To be seen
feeling anything strips you
naked. In the grip of it
pleasure or pain doesn’t
matter. You think what
will they do what new
power will they acquire if
they see me naked like
this.
If they see you
feeling. You have no idea
what. It’s not about them.
To be seen is the penalty.”
Anne Carson, Red Doc>

Yukio Mishima
“Nobody even imagines how well one can lie about the state of one’s own heart.”
Yukio Mishima, Thirst for Love
