Take Mitchel here -- no -- on second thoughts -- don't -- because he's a crude little bugger. - Peter Greenaway

It is an awesome sight, repeatedly drawn and painted. How long did it last, this Fall of Angels? Was it all over in an hour? Or did it take days, weeks, years? Is it still going on?

If you were not to be its victim, this book and body would amuse you with its arrogance. It would make you laugh. Because you were not its victim, you could feel no pain of betrayal.

It serves the purpose of not serving a purpose, surely quite a valid one.
