I’m often watching movies in order to see dead people. I want to see them again, I want to hear them. And so cinema is in a way a kind of shrouded post-death machine, you know. In a way cinema is a cemetery.
David Cronenberg (via The Film Stage)

“It took me a long time to realise there are two kinds of writing; the one you write and the one that writes you. The one that writes you is dangerous. You go where you don’t want to go. You look where you don’t want to look.”
— Jeanette Winterson, Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal?
