Last One to Leave, Shoot out the Lights

Entry #131, a nice prime number. My last posting. I seem to have no words of my own, so I shall use those of others.

Jim Morrison: “This is the end.”

Sign held up by Muslim protester: “Freedom of Expression is Western Terrorism.”

Lewis Carroll: "'But I don't want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked.
'Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat. 'We're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.'
'How do you know I'm mad?' said Alice.
'You must be," said the Cat. 'or you wouldn't have come here.'"

Adrienne Rich:

“I do not know
who I was when I did those things
or who I said I was
or whether I willed to feel
what I had read about
or who in fact there was with me
or whether I knew, even then
that there was doubt about these things."

My favorite piece of art I’ve ever seen. At a student exhibit, in a dark room, a piece called “Reassuring Future.” The guy had taken a large globe, bashed it with a hammer, painted it flat black, and put a tape loop inside that said, in a little monster voice, “Everything’ll be juuuussssst fine.”

I wish I’d seen Albania before they ruined it, but it's true, "Road to hell is paved with unbought stuffed dogs."

Groucho Marx: "Hello, I must be going."
