“It's the price of rootlessness. Motion sickness. The only cure: to keep moving.”
― Tony Kushner, Angels in America

“The ultimate, hidden truth of the world is that it is something that we make, and could just as easily make differently.”

“Surely all art is the result of one's having been in danger, of having gone through an experience all the way to the end, where no one can go any further.

― Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet
