„Don’t you know there is no one in the streetsand no one in the houses?There are only eyes in the windows.If you don’t have a place to sleep,knock on a door and it will open,open up to a certain pointand you will see that it is cold inside,and that that house is emptyand wants nothing to do with you,your stories mean nothing,and if you insist on being gentle,the dog and the cat will bite you.“

— Pablo Neruda

„It didn't matter that the story had begun, because kathakali discovered long ago that the secrets of the Great Stories is that they have no secrets. The Great Stories are the ones that you have heard and want to hear again. The ones you can enter anywhere and inhabit comfortably. They don't deceive you with thrills and trick endings. They don't surprise you with the unforeseen. They are as familiar as the house you live in. Or the smell of your lover's skin. You know how they end, yet you listen as though you don't. In the way that although you know that one day you will die, you live as though you won't. In the Great Stories you know who lives, who dies, who finds love, who doesn't. And yet you want to know again.That is their mystery and their magic.“
