CASSANDRA: the child outstretches handsfull of flesh. please don’t forget me. it is written, written in clear black—everywhere dead girls. dead girls. the sadness washes all the rest away

— Oresteia, Robert Icke

IPHIGENIA: Hold me. Please. I can feel the dead girl's breath inside this dress. I feel all the dead through me.

VIOLETA IMPERIAL: Girls die everyday here, and no one mourns them.

— Iphigenia Crash Land Falls On The Neon Shell That Was Once Her Heart, Caridad Svitch

CLYTEMNESTRA: It’s becoming a habit. Soon it’ll be normal and before you can turn round it’ll be a law. Before it was ring giving, ring taking, ships of gold and ships of spices, poets and harpists in the banquet hall. And if a sacrifice was wanted it was a calf or a deer. Now it’s girls. The blood of spotless girls these new gods want. What is this terrible new pact among men?

— Girl on an Altar, Marina Carr

You are inconsistent. You do not need to have a grand unified theory about what to do about Michael Jackson. You are a hypocrite, over and over. You love Annie Hall but you can barely stand to look at a painting by Picasso. You are not responsible for solving this unreconciled contradiction. In fact, you will solve nothing by means of your consumption; the idea that you can is a dead end. The way you consume art doesn't make you a bad person, or a good one. You'll have to find some other way to accomplish that.
