"We deal with so many nightmares on a regular basis. When I'm watching a horror movie, there's a pattern, a sense of control in them.

And so each of them loses himself for the sake of the other person, and loses the other, and many others who still wanted to come."
"At chaos' core lies the invitation."
"Irony is a clear consciousness of an eternal agility, of the infinitely abundant chaos."
