Safety Quotes
-

He imagined over and over the few moments they had together, kiss and touch and stickiness, until those moments congealed to a single kiss, a single touch: a pearl. Then even her face was lost in a blur, only the smallest sensation remained. And then nothing. He was over forty now. He thought of her but the sensuous arousals that once troubled him no longer stirred in him the same seismic memory: he didn't feel hate, or distance, or love, or passion. Only safety. Nothing can touch me now. Only pity. What will you do, whom I cannot save?

We spend all this energy keeping our lives normal and safe and predictable, and the result is that our approved cultural safety valve is the movies.

Wrinkled like the foot of a goose,
(All find safety in the tomb.)
