I deserve a mech suit. I deserve a symbiotic relationship with heavy machinery. I deserve to experience a perfect connection between flesh and metal

The violence of language consists in its effort to capture the ineffable and, hence, to destroy it, to seize hold of that which must remain elusive for language to operate as a living thing.

Jung locates the collective unconscious in the inherited cerebral matter. But there is no need to resort to the genes; the collective unconscious is quite simply the repository of prejudices, myths, and collective attitudes of a particular group.

“Do you know how the lime is made? Listen to this. Temperature is the most important thing. If you don’t keep the over temperature constant…the limestone doesn’t fire correctly. Fire is the basis of it. Wood is burning. And smoke goes through the neck of the chimney. The iron plate is made white-hot. The limestone burns and evaporates in the air…Only the white powder is left. Only god knows how much heat is needed for that.”

-”Do you know how to kiss?”

“There would be no white houses without lime. Plum jam would be sour.”

-”Do you know how to kiss?”

“Grandma says that lime comes from the breast od Mother Stone. Mother Forest and Mother Stone had an argument. And Mother Forest bit Mother Stone breast. That’s why lime is white as milk. Earth gave it birth. Water baptised it. And Fire fed it.”
