escape from the black widow spider is a miracle as great as art. what a web she can weave slowly drawing you to her she'll embrace you then when she's satisfied she'll kill you still in her embrace and suck the blood from you.

It’s when you hide things that you choke on them.

my greatest problem was stamps, envelopes, paper and wine, with the world on the edge of World War II.

if you get married they think you're finished and if you are without a woman they think you're incomplete.

nothing's news. it's the same old thing in disguise. only one thing comes without a disguise and you only see it once, or maybe never. like getting hit by a freight train. makes us realize that all our moaning about long lost girls in gingham dresses is not so important after all.

It's just that the grape has me down.

New Year's Eve always terrifies me.
