The great epochs of our life are the occasions when we gain
the courage to rebaptize our evil qualities as our best qualities.
Nietzsche
The edge of America. I've come here for my re-education.
We are all scavengers, every one, preying here on this great,
huge ball of dust and water, fire and flesh.
We're all just sad, lonesome beasts who terrorize by instinct.
So why is it that humans are the only species to outfit themselves
with codes of behavior? From where comes the desire to constrict
our dark passions?
The edge of America is where I make my home.
