    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    “Old women snore violently. They are like bodies into which bizarre animals have crept at night; the animals are vicious, bawdy, noisy. How they snore! There is no shame to their snoring. Old women turn into old men.”
    —Joyce Carol Oates (b. 1938)

    “Chinese civilisation is so systematic that wild animals have been abolished on principle.”
