there's a reason regular people don't appear on TV: we're boring.

If you don't pick your audience, you're lost because you're not really talking to anybody.

Nobody, of the hundreds of people that had visited the Fair, knew that a grey spider had played the most important part of all. No one was with her when she died.

We the survivors are not the true witnesses. The true witnesses, those in possession of the unspeakable truth are the drowned, the dead, the disappeared.

We come from long lines of people destined never to meet.

I bring messages and thanks from the others. Terry Gilliam sadly can't be with us tonight as they won't let him show his ass, which has been very favorably compared with Spielberg's ass.
Graham Chapman can't be with us tonight, as sadly he is still dead. And John Cleese is finishing a movie.
He has to get it back to Blockbuster by tomorrow.

We who survived the Camps are not true witnesses. This is an uncomfortable notion which I have gradually come to accept by reading what other survivors have written, including myself, when I re-read my writings after a lapse of years.

Those who have, and who have seen the face of the Gorgon, did not return, or returned wordless.

We lived in the gaps between the stories.

We all start as strangers, but we forget that we rarely choose who ends up a stranger, too

We all have names we don't know about.
