Manifeste Cannibale Dada
You are all indicted, stand up! It is impossible to talk to you unless you are standing up. Stand up as you would for the Marseillaise or God Save the King. Stand up, as if the Flag were before you. Or as if you were in the presence of Dada, which signifies Life, and which accuses you of loving everything out of snobbery if only it is expensive enough. One dies a hero’s death or an idiot’s death - which comes to the same thing. The only word that has more than a day-to-day value is the word Death. You love death - the death of others. Kill them! Let them die! Only money does not die; it only goes away for a little while. That is God! That is someone to respect: someone you can take seriously! Money is the prie-Dieu of entire families. Money for ever! Long live money! The man who has money is a man of honour. Honour can be bought and sold like the arse. The arse, the arse, represents life like potato-chips, and all you who are serious-minded will smell worse than cow’s shit. Dada alone does not smell: it is nothing, nothing, nothing. It is like your hopes: nothing like your paradise: nothing like your idols: nothing like your heroes: nothing like your artists: nothing like your religions: nothing. Hiss, shout, kick my teeth in, so what? I shall still tell you that you are half-wits. In three months my friends and I will be selling you our pictures for a few francs.
Francis Picabia, ‘Manifeste Cannibale Dada’. Read by André Breton at the 3rd Soirée Dada at the Théatre de la Maison de l'Oeuvre, 27 March 1920. Published in Dada n° 7 - DADAphone (March 1920), in Der Dada Nr. 3 (April 1920) and in Almanach Dada (June 1920).

Quote
Time is a man made concept. Therefore, ‘when’ is not a relevant thing to think about. Just know that it will happen, yesterday or tomorrow.
