“Everybody gets told to write about what they know. The trouble with many of us is that at the earlier stages of life we think we know everything – or to put it more usefully, we are often unaware of the scope and structure of our ignorance. Ignorance is not just a blank space on a person’s mental map. It has contours and coherence, and for all I know rules of operation as well. So as a corollary to writing about what we know, maybe we should add getting familiar with our ignorance, and the possibilities therein for ruining a good story.”

Thomas Pynchon, Slow Learner

OLIVER & COMPANY (1988) — dir. George Scribner

[duodesidaria]

"And that's when I realized what art should be: a blow to the senses. A punch in the face, always. A fuck in the ass, definitely. The deepest, dirtiest fuck of your life, Bunny. But also a wake-up call. A rousing call to Life and to the fact of imminent Death."

- Mona Awad: We love you, Bunny.
