"Love is by definition an unmerited gift; being loved without meriting it is the very proof of real love. If a woman tells me: I love you because you're intelligent, because you're decent, because you buy me gifts, because you don't chase women, because you do the dishes, then I'm disappointed; such love seems a rather self-interested business. How much finer it is to hear: I'm crazy about you even though you're neither intelligent nor decent, even though you're a liar, an egotist, a bastard." - Milan Kundera.
"It's very hard to feel safe in safe places. In pastoral settings, or in the arms of your great love, a considerable stake is implied. Serene moments, by their nature, are most vunerable to disruption. A carwash addresses these mammalian fears directly. A carwash says: Yes, there is danger all about. You are in the epicenter of an oceanic hell, the heart of a great turquoise volcano --- the worst has come to pass. And yet somehow you are surviving. All the strength of man and God is battering the glass, and you are dry and warm in a diving bell. With a stereo." - Dessa
