[image description: many screenshots of text.
1 (robert icke's oresteia):
There isn't one true version. There isn't. There isn't one story - a line of truth that stretches start to end. That doesn't happen any more, maybe it never happened, but even as I say this now, as I say this now, in each of your minds you create your own versions, different lenses pointing at the same thing at the same time and seeing that thing differently - it depends on too much - the day you've had, what you feel about your mother, the thought you thought before this one - it all floods in, this thing this whole thing is helpless because your brain creates stories in which it is right.
2 (from the nebraska plant by the mountain goats):
It's one of several iterations It gets hard to keep track
3 (a little learning by jayme ringleb):
Any story is true. Anything that opens is a mouth. A fox means a rainstorm. A cat means death. A deer means I wasn't looking hard enough.
4 (jack rackham in black sails):
A story is true. A story is untrue. As time extends, it matters less and less. The stories we want to believe... those are the ones that survive, despite upheaval and transition and progress. Those are the stories that shape history. And then what does it matter if it was true when it was born? It's found truth in its maturity, which if a virtue in man ought to be no less so for the things men create.
5 (blue nights by joan didion):
Time passes. Memory fades, memory adjusts, memory conforms to what we think we remember.
6 (wikipedia entry for "pentimento"):
In painting, a pentimento (Italian for 'repentance'; from the verb pentirsi, meaning 'to repent'; plural pentimenti) is "the presence or emergence of earlier images, forms, or strokes that have been changed and painted over". Sometimes the English form "pentiment" is used, especially in older sources.
7 (myers' psychology for the ap course, a textbook by c. nathan dewall and david myers):
To remember our past is often to revise it.
8 (pink by sylvie baumgartel):
Every time I remember you, I alter you.
9 (perforated heart by eric bogosian):
"All memory is a form of fiction. But all fiction is a form of reality."

What if one happens to be possessed of a heart that can’t be trusted? What if the heart, for its own unfathomable reasons, leads one willfully and in a cloud of unspeakable radiance away from health, domesticity, civic responsibility and strong social connections and all the blandly-held common virtues and instead straight toward a beautiful flare of ruin, self-immolation, disaster? If your deepest self is singing and coaxing you straight toward the bonfire, is it better to turn away? Stop your ears with wax? Ignore all the perverse glory your heart is screaming at you? Set yourself on the course that will lead you dutifully towards the norm, reasonable hours and regular medical check-ups, stable relationships and steady career advancement the New York Times and brunch on Sunday, all with the promise of being somehow a better person? Or… is it better to throw yourself head first and laughing into the holy rage calling your name?

when richard siken wrote “i’ll be your slaughterhouse, your killing floor, your morgue and final resting” / when pylades said i’ll take care of you, orestes pushed him away saying ‘it’s rotten work’ but pylades stood his ground: “not to me, not if it’s you.” / when joo yeo jeong says “i’ll do it, i’ll be your headsman. i’ll join the sword dance. tell me, what do you want me to do first. how do you want me to do it? who do you want me to kill first?” / when amal and max wrote “i want to be a body for you. i want to chase you, find you, i want to be eluded and teased and adored; i want to be defeated and victorious— i want you to cut me, sharpen me.” / when amy dunne says, “i’ve killed for you, who else can say that?” / when franz kafka wrote “love is, that you are the knife which i plunge into myself” / when kate bush sang, “spilt me open with devotion, you put your hands in and rip my heart out / when benjamin alire sáenz wrote “break me, I am bread. I will be the water for your thirst” / when sylvie baumgartel wrote “my ribcage exists for you to open so you can hold and eat my heart” / when saeed jones wrote “look at the weapon I’ve made of myself. You want to cut yourself on me, don’t you?” / when margaret atwood wrote “if i love you is that a fact or a weapon?” / when anne carson translated these words: “h of h: i cannot rise. too heavy with filth and sin”. “th: give me your hand.” “h of h: I’ll stain you”. “th: i’ll take it.” /
