“What the fuck is love? I don’t know. Some piece of something that is hard to find, much less capture on film. But these two, Siege and Katie James, they love each other. So they fuck each other. But they’re so much in love, they fuck other people, too. And then they take pictures of it. That’s love. Real love. Isn’t it? It’s some kind of love, I think.

But no, no, you can’t do that, somebody wants to say. That ain’t real love, someone wants to tell them. But it is. That’s real hardcore love. I’ve seen it. This is what it looked like. That’s what’s in these pictures. I don’t know why they do this. Maybe because love is so goddamn hidden all the time, so motherfucking difficult to get your hands all over. They got their love, and they want to show it off. So you want to jump inside these pictures. Slide yourself all up in it. Don’t you? I do.” — Susannah Breslin

“It must be really scary to be a conservative. To be one, you must live in constant fear of terrorists nuking the United States, of gay people on the verge of convincing you that you really enjoy sodomy, of Spanish becoming the official language of the United States next week, of every African-American voting seven or eight times in the next election, of radical Islam suddenly becoming the latest hip thing among kids across the country, of perpetual lesbian orgies in girls bathrooms in high schools across America, of liberals forcing everyone to become a vegan, of Christians being rounded up into concentration camps, and of Democrats outlawing private property if they were to ever take power again.”
