“The Arctic is a highway. The tree limit, the scarcity of trees, freed people to walk. Particularly in the wintertime. Which connected people physically, communicatively. And mythically. The long nights of winter free people to tell. And to listen.” PeopleLongNightWalksTreeLimitsWinterConnectedHighwaysScarcityArcticWintertimeLong Nights Author:Nils-Aslak Valkeapaa
“We are close to dead. There are faces and bodies like gorged maggots on the dance floor, on the highway, in the city, in the stadium; they are a host of chemical machines who swallow the product of chemical factories, aspirin, preservatives, stimulant, relaxant, and breathe out their chemical wastes into a polluted air. The sense of a long last night over civilization is back again.” LongBodyLastsFacesNightCitiesAirProductsCivilizationWasteMachinesBreatheChemicalsHostFactoriesHighwaysLast NightStadiumsBack AgainDance FloorAspirinStimulantsMaggots Book:Cannibals and Christians Source: Cannibals and Christians
