Book cover for Bad Behavior (Penguin Modern Classics)
All the conventions conspire To make this fort assume The furniture of home; Lest we should see where we are, Lost in a haunted wood, Children afraid of the night Who have never been happy or good. – W. H. Auden, September 1, 1939

Italo Calvino
“Ciò che conta è comunicare l’indispensabile lasciando perdere tutto il superfluo, ridurre noi stessi a comunicazione essenziale, a segnale luminoso che si muove in una data direzione, abolendo la complessità delle nostre persone e situazioni ed espressioni facciali, lasciandole nella scatola d’ombra che i fari si portano dietro e nascondono. La Y che io amo in realtà è quel fascio di raggi luminosi in movimento, e tutto il resto di lei può rimanere implicito; e il me stesso che lei può amare, il me stesso che ha il potere d’entrare in quel circuito d’esaltazione che è la sua vita affettiva, è il lampeggio di questo sorpasso che sto, per amor suo e non senza qualche rischio, tentando.”
Italo Calvino, Difficult Loves

Maurice Blanchot
“By her anguish; she made the sacrifice, full of strangeness, of her certainty that she existed, in order to give a sense to this nothingness of love which she had become. and thus, deep within her, already sealed, already dead, the most profound passion came to be.”
Maurice Blanchot, Thomas the Obscure

Jay McInerney
“You will have to go slowly. You will have to learn everything all over again.”
Jay McInerney, Bright Lights, Big City

Nan Goldin
“Sex is only one aspect of sexual dependency. Pleasure becomes the motivation, but the real satisfaction is romantic. Bed becomes a forum in which struggles in a relationship are defused or intensified. Sex isn't about performance; it's about a certain kind of communication founded on trust and exposure and vulnerability that can't be expressed any other way.”
Nan Goldin, The Ballad of Sexual Dependency

Jim Jarmusch
“But what I like most to do is lie down in the early evening, just for half an hour anywhere I am, and listen to all the sounds I can hear. As if I were listening to music. And being attentive to things very far and very present, and when you hear voices and they’re speaking a language you don’t understand, it’s really beautiful. I love that.”
Jim Jarmusch
