“But only if after you kill me,
You eat my dead body...
Cook me for a day and night...
Make me into stew.
Afterwards, suck my bones clean.
When my entire body has been eaten by you,
I can finally become your blood and flesh.
Then... I will belong entirely to you...”
― Kaori Yuki

“Too much respect for people who are not respectful to you is a sure sign of insecurity.”
― Alice Walker, The Temple of My Familiar

“A play is a blueprint of an event: a way of creating and rewriting history through the medium of literature. Since history is a recorded or remembered event, theatre, for me, is the perfect place to 'make' history--that is, because so much of African-American history has been unrecorded, dismembered, washed out, one of my tasks as a playwright is to--through literature and the special strange relationship between theatre and real-life--locate the ancestral burial ground, dig for bones, find bones, hear the bones sing, write it down.”
― Suzan-Lori Parks, The America Play and Other Works
