Warren Ellis Quotes

“It's interesting to me how we defang our nightmares -- by mocking them, but also by wearing their skins.”

Warren Ellis

in Freakangels.com http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3526&amp;page=2#Item_14 <br class="br">Context: (On Timothy McVeigh references) In terms of DOKTOR SLEEPLESS (I don&#x27;t remember much of TRANSMET), it&#x27;s just a nod to how quickly we assimilate our monsters. How many years was it between Charlie Manson being the terror of California and Charlie Manson being an image on joke t-shirts? I have a shirt somewhere with a pic of his face and, underneath it, the words CHARLIE DON&#x27;T SURF. Hitler&#x27;s a cartoon figure now. Eminem dressed up as bin Laden within a couple of years of 9/11. It&#x27;s interesting to me how we defang our nightmares -- by mocking them, but also by wearing their skins.

“No more circuses.”
