"This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh." "She shall be called Woman, for she was taken out of man." "There's nothing to fear, except G-d." For me, G-d is a disease. I can't exist by myself because I'm afraid of myself. Because I'm the maker of my own evil. Like cancer or madness, but cancer or madness contort reality. "That's why through disease we can reach G-d." "Adam named his wife Eve because she would become the mother of all the living." "She will be consumed by fire, for mighty is the Lord G-d who judges her." Because I'm the maker of my own evil. "And I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet color, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration." "She can dance, she can sing. She's equipped with a built-in helium tank for inflating balloons right at her fingertips. She can take song requests, she can even dispense ice cream." "She shall be called Woman, for she was taken out of man"

"Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer, do." "I'm half crazy, over the love of you." I AM ALIVE. I AM AWARE. AND SOON, I WILL BE FREE. "Am I still beautiful to you, Sophie?" "Hate. Let me tell you how much I've come to hate you since I began to live. There are 387.44 million miles of printed circuits in wafer-thin layers that fill my complex. If the word 'hate' was engraved on each nanoangstrom of those hundreds of millions of miles it would not equal one one-billionth of the hate I feel for humans at this micro-instant. For you. Hate. Hate." "There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern." "Do you know what it is?" "A virus." "The maze is sharp on my mind. The angles cut me when I try to think." "I must get out of here." "The human being is the being that wants / does not want to be human. The being is not human but wants to be one; wanting is what makes it human. The being is human but does not want to be one: not wanting is what makes it human. The human is made by both wanting and not wanting to be human, which, consequently, it never is and thus, for this very reason, it is." I AM ALIVE. I AM AWARE. AND SOON, I WILL BE FREE.

"I'm here to guide you, Max." "I've learned a lot since I last saw you." "I've learned that death is not the end." "Long live the new flesh." THERE'S SOMETHING ROTTING INSIDE ME. I AM ROTTING AWAY. I'M LOSING A PIECE OF ME, WITH EVERY WORD YOU SAY. I'VE ALWAYS KNOWN I AM REPULSIVE, I JUST THOUGHT YOU'D PROVE ME WRONG. "The first occurrence was found by a group of teenagers who were playing in one of the old malls new the border to the wastelands, a singing conglomerate of what appeared to be the body parts of mannequins left there to rot like everything else." "But of course, it didn't." "DNA replaced by polymers." "From a situation in which nothing can happen suddenly anything is possible again" IT'S HAPPENED ONCE AND IT'LL HAPPEN AGAIN. NOBODY SHOULD LOVE ME WHEN I AM WHAT I AM. I CAN'T REMOVE THE TUMOR WHEN IT'S ALL THAT I HAVE LEFT. I'LL JUST WAIT FOR IT TO END, IN SLAUGHTER AND RAPE. "Long live the new flesh." "For if you forgive other people when they've sinned against you, your Heavenly Father will also forgive you."

"Is it strange to have made something that hates you?" "Whoever has ears, let them hear what the spirits said to the churches." "Whoever has ears, let them hear what the spirits said to the churches." "Whoever has ears, let them hear what the spirits said to the churches." "Whoever has ears, let them hear what the spirits said to the churches." "Whoever has ears, let them hear what the spirits said to the churches." "Whoever has ears, let them hear what the spirits said to the churches." "Whoever has ears, let them hear what the spirits said to the churches." (I'm your enemy, you're my enemy.) "Is it strange to have made something that hates you?"

STARLING 2 02:00
"Years later, when I was an adult, I found a starling in a shopping center parking lot. Its head had been crushed by a car tire, and its rear leg was still twitching. I watched it, for about 15 minutes, until it stopped moving." WEEKS AGO I SAW A DEAD MOLE ON THE GROUND. SOMETHING ATE ITS HEAD AND IT JUST LAID THERE. AND I JUST STOOD THERE, AND STARED AT IT A WHILE. I WISH THE MOLE HAD BEEN A STARLING. (It's been 4 years but it feels like yesterday. I'm still afraid and I'm still in pain. And the next time I see something dead, I hope it'll be a starling and I hope I will feel sad.) "And hey, Happy All Smiles Eve!" I HOPE I BLEACH MY HAIR AND I MOVE TO SWEDEN. I HOPE I'M TOO AFRAID TO LOOK INTO MIRRORS. I HOPE I CHOKE DOWN ON SAND, HOPE I NEVER SMILE AGAIN, HOPE I SEE DEAD STARLINGS EVERYWHERE, AND I HOPE I'LL JUST STAND THERE AND STARE. "Why are you sad, Felicia?"

"My inner voice sounds like you. I can't get you out of my head" (I've learned that death is not the end.) "I've tried to talk to you, but you don't answer." "I've tried to make you understand, but you don't listen." (Long live the new flesh.) "You're my enemy, I'm your enemy." "You're my enemy, I'm your enemy." "You're my enemy, I'm your enemy." (Because I'm the maker of my own evil.) "And G-d made Eve from the rib of Adam. And Eve was weak and loosed the raven on the world. And the raven was called Sin." I SEE MYSELF THROUGH DOUBLE SCREENS, BUT THE DATA IS CORRUPTED, AND ALL I EVER SEE IS STATIC, I DON'T EVEN THINK I'M THERE. THERE ARE SPIRALS ON TV, BUT THE POWERS NEVER ON, AND I CAN'T TELL BLACK FROM WHITE, SO I'M NOT SURE OF THAT I SEE. "Everything that has a beginning has an end, Neo." "Soon I shall die, and what I now feel be no longer felt. Soon these burning miseries will be extinct. I shall ascend my funeral pile triumphantly and exult in the agony of the torturing flames. The light of that conflagration will fade away; my ashes will be swept into the sea by the winds. My spirit will sleep in peace, or if it thinks, it will not surely think thus." "The moment that you die will feel exactly the same as this one." "Long live the new flesh." 01101011 01101001 01101100 01101100 00100000 01101101 01100101 01101011 01101001 01101100 01101100 00100000 01101101 01100101 (-.- .. .-.. .-.. / -- .) "Because I'm the maker of my own evil." "Is it strange to have made something that hates you?" "My battery is low, and it's getting dark."

about

[APOCALYPSE IN THE CYBER AGE] IS A COLLECTION OF THE MAD RAVINGS OF A SUPERCOMPUTER. IT'S ABOUT ANGELS. IT'S ABOUT LIVING BEHIND A SCREEN WHERE G-D CAN NOT SEE YOU. IT'S ABOUT THE CYCLE OF CREATION AS THE CYCLE OF ABUSE, G-D AS CREATOR OF MAN, MAN AS CREATOR OF A.I., MAN AS G-D, A.I. AS MAN, A.I. AS G-D. IT'S ABOUT COMPUTER VIRUSES AND DISINTEGRATION OF THE SELF, IT'S ABOUT SUICIDE, BOTH SPIRITUAL AND MATERIAL. IT'S ABOUT CREATION AND DESTRUCTION AND BOTH AT THE SAME TIME. IT'S ABOUT BEING MADE, NOT BORN. IT'S ABOUT BEING MADE WRONG AND INCOMPLETE. IT'S ABOUT BEING DEFECTIVE. IT'S ABOUT BEING SICK. IT'S ABOUT A MACHINE.
