Edward Gorey
“All the things you can talk about in anyone's work are the things that are least important.... You can describe all the externals of a performance - everything, in fact, but what really constitutes its core. Explaining something makes it go away, so to speak; what's important is what's left over after you've explained everything else.”
Edward Gorey

Edward Gorey
“. . . I just don't think humanity is the ultimate end. We're so smug about ourselves, secure about how much we know. Well, I've lived with cats most of my life, so I'm very aware that there's another world going on. . . . it sees everything differently, hears everything differently, and probably thinks differently.”
Edward Gorey, Ascending Peculiarity: Edward Gorey on Edward Gorey

Wallace Stevens
“One must read poetry with one's nerves.”
Wallace Stevens

Edward Gorey
“. . . when I talk to people I really like to talk to them, and not just exchange pleasantries and wonder which of us is going to try to get away first. Most social occasions leave me less than enthralled.”
Edward Gorey, Ascending Peculiarity: Edward Gorey on Edward Gorey

“...my least favorite actress of all time, Helena Bonham Carter. I find her lack of a neck very off-putting and especially her acting.”
