"Wonders amaze me. They can aim wanderlessly in any forest, be it of dark trees or lighted bushes. And apparently, as per what I've heard, they can buy stuff that's on sale, but only if and when they feel wonderfully wonderful. Because otherwise they wouldn't really be themselves, which would be a problem for them, because if they aren't what they are - they can't exist, and if they don't exist " that makes them invisible and silent to all the wandering people, who may or may not be looking for them to sell themselves to."
"The boy looks into Mugwump eyes blank as obsidian mirrors, pools of black blood, glory holes in a toilet wall closing on the Last Erection."

It stays what it is, with its red plush, thousands of little red paws in the air, all still, little dead paws. This enormous belly turned upward, bleeding, inflated-bloated with all its dead paws, this belly floating in this car, in this grey sky, is not a seat. It could just as well be a dead donkey tossed about in the water, floating with the current, belly in the air in a great grey river, a river of floods; and I could be sitting on the donkey's belly, my feet dangling in the clear water."
"I put tape on the mirrors in my house so I don't accidentally walk through into another dimension."
"Two Lesbian Agents with glazed faces of grafted penis flesh sat sipping spinal fluid through alabaster straws."
"I walk. I talk. I shop. I sneeze. I'm gonna be a fireman when the floods roll back. There's trees in the desert since you moved out, and I don't sleep on a bed of bones."
"I think it was more personal, but I certainly tried to adapt certain concepts of Surrealism."
