Sylvia Plath - Last Words

I do not want a plain box, I want a sarcophagus
With tigery stripes, and a face on it
Round as the moon, to stare up.

The Hollow Men, T. S. Eliot

We are the hollow men
We are the stuffed men

Shape without form, shade without colour,
Paralysed force, gesture without motion;

The eyes are not here
There are no eyes here
In this valley of dying stars
In this hollow valley

This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper.

Day ahead, go. Make my punk.

Twin Peaks

"Thru the darkness of Future Past
the magician longs to see
one chants out between two worlds
Fire - walk with me."


Windom Earle: Garland, what do you fear most... in the world?
Major Briggs: The possibility that love is not enough.


...many rooms are exactly like
housed by different souls every night (?)

1. If you do what you love, you never have to work.
2. A tiny radish seed knows how to become a radish without going to college or church or anything.
3. If something is boring and then you call it art, it is still boring.

A painter paints pictures on canvas. But musicians paint their pictures on silence. -- Leopold Stokowski

pity this busy monster, manunkind

pity this busy monster, manunkind,

not. Progress is a comfortable disease:
your victim (death and life safely beyond)

plays with the bigness of his littleness
--- electrons deify one razorblade
into a mountainrange; lenses extend
unwish through curving wherewhen till unwish
returns on its unself.
                         A world of made
is not a world of born --- pity poor flesh

and trees, poor stars and stones, but never this
fine specimen of hypermagical

ultraomnipotence. We doctors know

a hopeless case if --- listen: there's a hell
of a good universe next door; let's go

      -- E. E. Cummings

On the day the world ends
A bee circles a clover,
A fisherman mends a glimmering net.
Happy porpoises jump in the sea,
By the rainspout young sparrows are playing
And the snake is gold-skinned as it should always be.

Czeslaw Milosz, A Song On the End of the World

Too Fast to Live, Too Young to Work

I'm the James Dean of the dole queue
You've got to admire my cheek -
Trying to work out how to live fast and die young
On seventeen-fifty a week.
A legend in my own cubicle
All alone, never one of the mob
I'm the James Dean of the dole queue
A rebel without a job.

Mark Lamarr

Being poor is people wondering why you didn't leave.


Most of gangster rap seem to revolve around killing policeman, being in jail and having penetrative sex with “hose”.

Lastenlauluista

Ja sillä on uninen lakki ja sininen uninen vyö,
Ja unista jäätelön palaa se pienillä hampailla syö,
Ja sillä on sininen auto ja se auto hyrrää näin:
Surrur, surrur ja lähtee unen sinistä maata päin.


Muurahaiset aina rakentaa ja rakentaa,
vaan eivätkö ne koskaan valmihiksi saa?
Matkamies käy rantaan lammen vettä juodakseen,
niin peilikuva katsoo alta tyynen veen


Säde vastas: "Peikko kulta,
pimeys vie hengen multa,
enkä toivo kuolemaa.
Pois mun täytyy heti mennä;
ellen kohta valoon lennä,
niin en hetkeäkään elää saa!"

Phallocentric chicks:
they dig guys with big wars.
I just cannot, you know, believe in a war
against chicks when they've got the anti-chick war
thing goin' on.
The women will be like "Ooh, what a cute war!"

Chicks dig war

O poor heart
I was doomed from the start
Doomed to play
The villains part
I was the baddest Johnny
In the apple cart
My blood was blacker
Than the chambers of a dead nun's heart.

Nick Cave: Up Jumped The Devil

Satunnaisen nyrkkitappelun hyöty on aika kyseenalainen.

Onnelliset ihmiset eivät hymyile.

Love is the extremely difficult realisation that something other than oneself is real.

No, use my space name!

Tietyssä pisteessä ohjaaja joutuu tilanteeseen, jossa hän pyytää jotain tyyppiä laittamaan hassut viikset nenälleen, pukeutumaan vaatteisiin joita tämä ei normaalisti käytä, ja sanomaan asioita, joita tämä ei normaalisti sano - ja odottaa katsojien uskovan sen.
-- Cronenberg on Cronenberg, s. 210

I am a breath
I am a wish
I am a rocket
and a fish
I felt his measures and his weight
my own body as a scale

I heard a whisper in my ear
"you are not here, you are not here"
I saw the northern light above
and the eclipse of the sun

The Knife - Kino

I am a dragon and I don't care
I just like to see people scared.
