Quote by Bruce Bégout

“Las Vegas se moque de tout. Chaque réalité, elle la tourne en dérision. Sans se soucier de l’histoire, elle broie tout évènement humain dans un chyme électrochimique et parodique qui le naisse absolument rien intact. Ce faisant, elle révèle la scène primitive de la société : l’impossibilité de croire en la vérité de l’autre. Elle fait d’autrui un parfait inconnu, puisque tout ce qui signale sa présence, la culture et la civilisation, est ici proprement ridiculisé. p12”

“BARRY GIFFORD, Author of "Wild at Heart", on DANGEROUS ODDS by Marisa Lankester: "Marisa Lankester's unique chronicle of high crimes and low company is as wild a ride as any reader is likely to be taken on. She was the lone woman in the eye of a predatory hurricane that blew across continents and devastated countless lives. That she survived is testament to her brains and bravery. The old-timers who invented violence as a second language contended that nothing is deadlier than the female, to cross her was to buck dangerous odds, and this book tells you why." Film "Wild at Heart" won Palme D’Or at the Cannes Film Festival, Film by David Lynch”

“Best workout ever." Darius sat next to her and rested his back against the soft mat. She laughed and fumbled to put on her bra. He lifted the weight of her hair from her back and helped her pull down her silk shirt. For a moment, he held the length of her hair in his hand as he had the swing rope. He tugged gently to turn her face to his, and then released it. His face was open and relaxed, his pale blue eyes warm and content. His knees fell open to rest against hers. The feel of skin on skin, bone to bone, was easy, the most natural thing in the world. "Next time we should try the pommel horse." Mei laughed. "You still got pommeling on your mind?" "Oh yeah." He signed and tilted his chin to the ciling, exposing the length of his throat. "Some pommeling and tumbling would be good. We've got time to make up for.”

“Todavía podéis bajaros del mundo. Podéis ser autosuficientes, cultivar vuestra propia comida, construir vuestra propia casa, hacer vuestro propio jabón, pan, ropa, riqueza. Podéis dejaros de pajas mentales y de teles de plasma que os tratan como si ya no os funcionara el cerebro, de interminables torres de oficinas en los que os jodéis la vida reordenando abstracciones ajenas, de terrorismos terroríficos que no hacen ni la mitad de muertos al año que vuestras queridas carreteras, de atentados supuestamente perpetrados unos personajes sobre los que no entendéis nada. Podéis rechazar un mundo que pasa sus días pidiendo prestado para consumir recursos con los que producir toda esa estúpida basura. Mascotas electrónicas. Interiorismo impersonal. Sexo virtual. Cheques regalo. Realities irreales. Comida con la que enfermar.”
