"Time and again I, too, have felt so full of luminous torrents that I could burst--burst with forms much more beautiful that those which are put up in frames and sold for a stinking fortune."

~Helene Cixous, Laugh of the Medusa

I feel this way when my eyes widen into my skin at the thought of some unutterable connective idea...but without the inexplicable hatred towards painting.

Other great phrases from Mme. Cixous: "undifferentiated magma" and "That's their immemorial business." Sassy French feminist. If she were a condiment, I think she'd be mango habanero hot sauce.
