Разрыв, даже с чудовищем, всегда как репетиция смерти. Потому что все, что у тебя собрано: коллекция объятий, вечеров, ночей, случаев, молчания - все это подвергается опасности вдруг. Все это безжалостно убивается, по улыбкам ходят ногами, и часть жизни отмирает. И ты остаешься с меньшим количеством жизни.

Crystal Pite is so freaking cool, a real dance genius.

If something is worth hearing or listening to, it’s very probably worth reading. So, this above all: Find your own voice.
Christopher Hitchens “Mortality”

Vita Sackville-West

August Sander - “Secretary at a Radio Station”
We do not know our own souls, let alone the souls of others. Human beings do not go hand in hand the whole stretch of the way. There is a virgin forest in each; a snowfield where even the print of birds’ feet is unknown. Here we go alone and like it better so. Always to have sympathy, always to be accompanied, always to be understood would be intolerable.
Virginia Woolf “On Being Ill”
