A moment is all you can expect from perfection.

People had been working for so many years to make the world a safe organized place. Nobody realized how boring it would become.

No one wants to admit we're addicted to music. That's just not possible. No one's addicted to music and television and radio. We just need more of it, more channels, a larger screen, more volume. We can't bear to be without it, but no, nobody's addicted. We could turn it off anytime we wanted. I fit a window frame into a brick wall. With a little brush, the size for fingernail polish, I glue it. The window is the size of a fingernail. The glue smells like hair spray. The smell tastes like oranges and gasoline.

this is the upside of already being eternally damned

We'll never be as young as we are tonight.
