Salvador Dalí
“I do not understand why, when I ask for grilled lobster in a restaurant, I'm never served a cooked telephone.”
Salvador Dalí

Chris Kraus
“No one...can live in this heightened state of reflective receptivity forever. Because this empathy's involuntary, there's terror here. Loss of control, a seepage. Becoming someone else or worse: becoming nothing but the vibratory field between two people.”
Chris Kraus, I Love Dick

Chris Kraus
“Why do people think that we’re degraded when we’re examining positions of degradation, or examining the cycle of our own degradation?”
Chris Kraus, I Love Dick

John M. Frame
“There is a circularity here I do not doubt. I am defending the Bible by the Bible. Circularity of a kind is unavoidable when one seeks to defend an ultimate standard of truth, for one's defense must itself be accountable to that standard.”
John M. Frame, The Doctrine of the Word of God

William S. Burroughs
“Many doctors are drawn to this profession (psychology) because they have an innate deficiency of insight into the motives, feelings and thoughts of others, a deficiency they hope to remedy by ingesting masses of data.”
William S. Burroughs, The Western Lands
