“In my profession more generally, it's not an exaggeration to say that masculinity is viewed as the root of all evil. If you were to take a literary theory course, you might think it would be about literature, but it's really not. It's about all the various forms of oppression on earth and how we can see them playing out in literary works. And behind all these forms of oppression is a guy.” IfsThinkingMightWould BeEarthFormGuyCoursesEvilLiteratureBehindsTheoryRootsVariousProfessionOppressionMasculinityExaggerationLiterary WorksLiterary Theory Author:Jonathan Gottschall

“I love the gothic literature. It always has such great stories with characters bigger than life and the stakes are always high. And because there's always a wolf at the door, the emotions are high; the romance, the sexuality, friendships, and relationships. You don't know if the guy kissing you one minute is going to bite you the next. This heightens all of the sensibilities and emotions, and therefore, it sings to me. And that's where the music comes from.” IfsKnowsCharacterStoriesRomanceGuyNextLiteratureEmotionDoorsMinutesKissingBiggerSexualityBitesStakesSensibilityGothicOne MinuteKissing YouBigger Than LifeFriendships And Relationships Author:Frank Wildhorn
“Barrie and the wonderful characters he created, Lewis Carroll, even French literature, like Baudelaire or over in the States, Poe, you open those books, you open The Flowers of Evil and begin to read. If it were written today, you'd be absolutely stupefied by the work. It's this incredible period where the work is timeless, ageless. So yeah, I just love all those guys. It's my deep passion in those great 19th century writers.” IfsBookStatesCharacterTodayGuyPassionEvilLiteratureWonderfulWrittenCenturyFlowerPeriodsYeahIncrediblesWorking ItTimeless19th CenturyAgelessFrench LiteratureBaudelaireDeep Passion Author:Johnny Depp
