    “New is a word for fools in towns who think
    Style upon style in dress and thought at last
    Must get somewhere.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Evelyn Mulwray: She’s my daughter.
    J.J. Gittes: I said I want the truth!
    Evelyn Mulwray: She’s my sister. She’s my daughter. My sister, my daughter.
    J.J. Gittes: I said I want the truth!
    Evelyn Mulwray: She’s my sister and my daughter!”

    “No doubt I shall go on writing, stumbling across tundras of unmeaning, planting words like bloody flags in my wake. Loose ends, things unrelated, shifts, nightmare journeys, cities arrived at and left, meetings, desertions, betrayals, all manner of unions, adulteries, triumphs, defeats ... these are the facts.”
    —Alexander Trocchi (1925–1983)
