"People always find it so frustrating that there's no structure they can see, that they just have to follow the river downstream and see what they find. They want to know the plot so they can guess the end, because they're afraid of what it might be. I can understand that, even though I know it's not the way things work. I never know what the hell's going to happen next, but I can live with that."

"You think you see the world as it really is, think the gaps you see, the time you understand, is the way it is. Bit there are other gaps, ones you don't know about, and in those gaps the devils are playing. You don't know anything about the world. You just don't fucking know.."
