Body Language

Pussy, King of the Pirates

"Pretend that there is a distinct entity named self and a different entity named other or world. Define insanity as the situation when there occurs a nonnegotiable disparity between the self's version of the world and the world. According to this definition, American culture is now insane. Well-measured language, novels which structurally depend on the Aristotelian continuities, on any formal continuities, cannot describe, much less criticize, such culture."
