    I saw my downcast mother....”

    —Edward D. Wood, Jr. (1922–1978)

    “In the twentieth century, death terrifies men less than the absence of real life. All these dead, mechanized, specialized actions, stealing a little bit of life a thousand times a day until the mind and body are exhausted, until that death which is not the end of life but the final saturation with absence.”
    —Raoul Vaneigem (b. 1934)
