Mona Awad
“Why do you lie so much? And about the weirdest little things?", my mother always asked me. "I don’t know", I always said. But I did know. It was very simple. Because it was a better story.”
Mona Awad, Bunny

Courtney Summers
“People don't change. They just get better at hiding who they really are.”
Courtney Summers, Sadie

“It was a terrible thing, sure, but we live in a world that has no shortage of terrible things. You can't stop for all of them.”
Courtney Summers, Sadie

“We've read Jane Eyre too, you cunt, and we've read The Waves, and when we read it, you know, we wept for minutes.
Then he stars weeping.”
Mona Awad, Bunny

Brian Eno
“Whatever you now find weird, ugly, uncomfortable and nasty about a new medium will surely become its signature. CD distortion, the jitteriness of digital video, the crap sound of 8-bit - all of these will be cherished and emulated as soon as they can be avoided. It’s the sound of failure: so much modern art is the sound of things going out of control, of a medium pushing to its limits and breaking apart. The distorted guitar sound is the sound of something too loud for the medium supposed to carry it. The blues singer with the cracked voice is the sound of an emotional cry too powerful for the throat that releases it. The excitement of grainy film, of bleached-out black and white, is the excitement of witnessing events too momentous for the medium assigned to record them.”
Brian Eno, A Year With Swollen Appendices
