 If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person?

 If you're male and you're Christian and living in America, your father is your model for God. And if you never know your father, if your father bails out or dies or is never at home, what do you believe about God?

 If you're not drunk and half-naked by now then you haven't been paying attention

 If your body is a temple, you can pile up too much deferred maintenance. If your body is a temple, mine was a real fixer-upper.

 Ignore how it feels when the only real talent you have is for hiding the truth. You have a God-given knack for committing a terrible sin. You have a natural gift for denial. A blessing.

 Imagine books and music and movies being filtered and homogenized. Certified. Approved for consumption. People will be happy to give up most of their culture for the assurance that the tiny bit that comes through is safe and clean. White noise.

 In 'Diary,' the motto really is: Where Do You Get Your Inspiration?

 In a world where vows are worthless. Where making a pledge means nothing. Where promises are made to be broken, it would be nice to see words come back into power.

 In most hospitals, paging Nurse Flamingo means a fire. Dr. Blaze means a fire. Dr. Green means a suicide. Dr. Blue means somebody stopped breathing. Nothing is straight forward anymore. In a grocery store, paging Mr. Cash is a call for an armed security guard. Paging "Freight check to Women's Clothing" means somebody is shoplifting in that department. Other stores page a fake woman named Sheila. "Sheila to the front" means somebody is shoplifting in the front of the store. Mr. Cash and Sheila and Nurse Flamingo are always bad news. It's what people say when they don't want you to hear the truth.

 In the real world, I'm a recall coordinator in a shirt and tie, sitting in the dark with a mouthful of blood and changing the overheads and slides as my boss tells Microsoft how he choose a particular shade of cornflower blue for an icon.

 It does not matter. The joke is we all have the same punch line.

 It just seems natural. You and me against the world.

 It seemed that moment would last forever. That you had to risk your life to get love. You had to get right to the edge to ever be saved.

 It's all the mirror, mirror on the wall because beauty is power the same way money is power the same way a gun is power.

 It's because we're so trapped in our culture, in the being of being human on this planet with the brains we have, and the same two arms and legs everybody has. We're so trapped that any way we could imagine to escape would be just another part of the trap. Anything we want, we're trained to want.
