I Find Artaud Strangely Calming In Ways That Theodore Kaczynski Is Not

Working here and there on a rewrite of a play I wrote for the first NAPLWRIMO. Looking over some of the source material for that play which now has no title (I really suck at naming things that are not my children) I found this little quote from Artaud which really gave me some perspective. These words resonate still and get at the heart of what I'm trying to accomplish in the writing - the horror and realization of one's death and the ways denial and avoidance manifest themselves. Oh and you know have a bit of humor about it.
