| Bio: | I like to cook, bake, sew, knit, craft, paint, write and other domestic/artsy goodness while at the same time run my theater company, freelance as a stage director, and kick serious ass as a post-modern liberal feminist. ................................................................ Many of my posts are friends-locked, just so's you know. If you'd like to be added, comment to let me know and I'll let you in, because chances are good I'll like you. ................................................................ "No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better." - Samuel Beckett "Each day takes figuring out all over again, how to fucking live." - Calamity Jane, Deadwood "It was a dark and stormy night; the rain fell in torrents--except at occasional intervals, when it was checked by a violent gust of wind which swept up the streets (for it is in London that our scene lies), rattling along the housetops, and fiercely agitating the scanty flame of the lamps that struggled against the darkness." -Edward George Bulwer-Lytton, Paul Clifford (1830) "Things do not change. We change." -Henry David Thoreau "When the actor gains certainty, he loses spontaneity." -Charles Marowitz "One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman." - Simone de Beauvoir "They say goldfish have no memories, I guess their lives are much like mine. And the little, plastic castle is a surprise every time. And it hard to say if they're happy but they don't seem much to mind." - Ani DiFranco "The most violent element in society is ignorance." - Emma Goldman Joan La Pucelle Dauphin, I am by birth a shepherd's daughter, My wit untrain'd in any kind of art. Heaven and our Lady gracious hath it pleased To shine on my contemptible estate: Lo, whilst I waited on my tender lambs, And to sun's parching heat display'd my cheeks, God's mother deigned to appear to me And in a vision full of majesty Will'd me to leave my base vocation And free my country from calamity: Her aid she promised and assured success: In complete glory she reveal'd herself; And, whereas I was black and swart before, With those clear rays which she infused on me That beauty am I bless'd with which you see. Ask me what question thou canst possible, And I will answer unpremeditated: My courage try by combat, if thou darest, And thou shalt find that I exceed my sex. Resolve on this, thou shalt be fortunate, If thou receive me for thy warlike mate. Henry the VI, part 1. Act 1, Scene 2. "I am not happy, but I am well." - Marquis de Sade | |
