      Behold the word: Destroy, destroy, destroy. Destroy within yourself; destroy what surrounds you. Make space for your soul and all other souls.

      Destroy all good and all evil. Their ruins are the same.

      Destroy the old dwellings of man and the old dwellings of the soul; what is dead is a distorting mirror.

      Destroy, for all creation comes from destruction.

      And for higher benevolence you must annihilate lower benevolence. And thus new art seems a sort of iconoclasm.

      For all construction is made of debris, and nothing is new in this world but forms.

      But you must destroy the forms.

        “I think perfection is ugly. Somewhere in the things humans make, I want to see scars, failure, disorder, distortion.”

          If you lose your wealth, you have lost nothing.
          If you lose your health, you have lost something.
          If you lose your character, you have lost everything.

          Woodrow Wilson

                  "We have nothing to fear but fear itself. Apart from pain, and maybe humiliation...and obviously death and failure, but apart from FEAR, PAIN, HUMILIATION, FAILURE, THE UNKNOWN, and DEATH, we have nothing to fear but fear itself. Who’s with me!?"

                    - I am not the official Church Jesus who is accepted by policemen, bankers, judges, executioners, officers, church bosses, politicians and similar representatives of power. I am not your Superstar who keeps playing his part for you on the cross, and whom you hit in the face when he steps out of his role, and who therefore cannot call out to you, "I am fed up with all your pomp and all your rituals! Your incense is disgusting. It stinks of burnt human flesh. I can't bear your holy celebrations and holidays any longer. You can pray as much as you like, I'm not listening. Keep all your idiotic honours and laudations. I won't have anything to do with them. I do not want them. I am no pillar of peace and security. Security that you achieve with tear gas and with billy clubs. I am no guarantee for obedience and order either. Order and obedience at reform schools, prisons, penal institutions, insane asylums. I am the disobedient one, the restless one who does not live in any house. Nor am I a guarantee for success, savings accounts and possessions. I am the homeless one without a permanent home who stirs up trouble wherever he goes. I am the agitator, the invoker, I am the scream. I am the hippie, bum, Black Power, Jesus people. I want to free the prisoners. I want to make the blind see. I want to redeem the tortured. I want to cast love into your hearts, the love that reaches out beyond everything that exists. I want to turn you into living human beings, immortals."

                                My husband and I are either going to buy a dog or have a child.
