"Ideas (in the Platonic sense) are not shiny, metallic Figures in conceptual corsets, but somewhat shaky maculations, tenuous blemishes on a vague background" (Roland Barthes, The Responsibility of Forms). "I have decided to exist as my own literary commentary. I have decided that I will still be beautiful, though tragic" (Janette Turner Hospital, 'Golden Girl').
