    “Eclecticism is the degree zero of contemporary general culture: one listens to reggae, watches a western, eats McDonald’s food for lunch and local cuisine for dinner, wears Paris perfume in Tokyo and “retro” clothes in Hong Kong; knowledge is a matter for TV games. It is easy to find a public for eclectic works.”
    —Jean François Lyotard (b. 1924)

    “I leave you, home,
    when I’m ripped from the doorstep
    by commerce or fate. Then I submit
    to the awful subway of the world....”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Panic and emptiness! Panic and emptiness!”
