## Quotes

* Make it work!
** Gunn's catchphrase during his work on the television show Project Runway
* I was called a fool when I was chair of fashion at Parsons and I invited PETA to speak to students. The industry went crazy. I said: "Wait a minute. The International Fur Trade Commission is coming here. I have a responsibility to bring another point of view, let the students decide." I would say if you're going to use fur, you have a responsibility to know its origins. … There's no reason to kill animals for fur. Wearing fur is like wearing a big sign reading, "I'm in favor of inflicting cruelty and pain on animals as a fashion statement." Unspeakable torture is inflicted on dogs, cats, bunnies, raccoons, foxes, minks and myriad trapped, helpless creatures in the name of fashion — yes, dogs and cats.
** "Tim Gunn and me" by Patt Morrison, interview with the Los Angeles Times (23 November 2009).
* Stella’s work has helped to redefine and recalibrate our thinking. … Higher-end brands have said they couldn’t exist without fur. Stella proves, of course you can.
** At a party held at Stella McCartney’s 14th Street boutique in New York; quoted in "New York Fashion Week: Tim Gunn, Taraji Henson make the case against animal cruelty", NOLA.com (10 February 2011).
# The Silver Chalice (film)

The Silver Chalice is a 1954 film about a Greek artisan commissioned to cast the cup of Christ.
    Directed by Victor Saville. Written by Lesser Samuels, based on the novel by Thomas B. Costain.

## Peter

* It will be restored, but for years and for hundreds of years, it will lie in darkness; where, I know not. When it is brought out into the light again there will be great cities, and mighty bridges and towers higher than the tower of Babel. It will be a world of evil and long bitter wars. In such a world as that the little cup will look very lonely. But it may be in that age when man holds lightning in his hands, and rides the sky as Simon the Magician strove to do it will be needed more than it is needed now.

## Taglines

* I bid you seek the lost Silver Cup... for Sin is rising like the swollen rivers...

# Twins

Twins are two offspring produced by the same pregnancy. Twins can be either monozygotic ("identical"), meaning that they develop from one zygote, which splits and forms two embryos, or dizygotic ("fraternal"), meaning that they develop from two different eggs. In fraternal twins, each twin is fertilized by its own sperm cell.

## Quotes

* If you’ve ever sat in a room with twins, immediately you’re forced to deal with this confusion. You’re afraid to call them by name because you’re afraid you’re going to get it wrong. At first being a twin is a source of power, you can switch, you can fool people—but then it becomes a vulnerability because people confuse you when you don’t want them to. The famous story of the twins who were both spanked when either one of them did something wrong because the parents wanted to make sure they got the right twin. So that would immediately make each twin totally responsible for the other one’s actions and therefore would make you want to control the other twin’s actions. It gets quite twisted and the confusion of identities becomes quite intense.
** David Cronenberg
* Τοίω τὼ χείρεσσιν ὑπ' Αἰνείαο δαμέντε καππεσέτην, ἐλάτῃσιν ἐοικότες ὑψηλῇσι.
** So here the twins were laid low at Aeneas' hands, down they crashed like lofty pine trees axed.
** Homer, Iliad (c. 750 BC), Book V. 559–560 (tr. Robert Fagles).
* More tears. Disgraceful. I was getting just like Kester, weeping at the drop of a hat, but of course I was Kester. I'd become him, and now there was just this other stranger who wrote me debonair notes and who sounded just like me.
** Susan Howatch, The Wheel of Fortune
* For one of us was born a twin And not a soul knew which.
** Henry Sambrooke Leigh, "The Twins", line 7, in Carols of Cockayne (London: John Camden Hotten, 1869) p. 9.

# Zoe Kincaid Penlington

Zoe Kincaid Penlington (2 March 1878 – 28 March 1944) was a Canadian-born journalist and drama critic based in Tokyo from 1908 to 1941. She was the author of Kabuki: The Popular Stage in Japan (1925), the first English-language study of kabuki.

## Quotes

* "The Japanese theatre art differs so widely from anything to be seen in Western countries that it might as well belong to the people of Mars or Saturn, so far removed is it from the ordinary affairs of life as known and experienced in the West. But just because the Eastern hemisphere has founded its theatres on opposite principles from those of Europe, there is all the more reason why this uncharted field of human endeavour should become familiar to our unaccustomed ears and eyes."
** Zoe Kincaid Penlington, "The Hidden Genius of the East" Pacific Review (March 1921): 452.
* "The long procession of priests in picturesque robes, and the group of feudal lords in their large ceremonial court costumes of many colors, made a memorable stage picture, and one, indeed, that the most extravagant of motion picture scenes might well emulate."
** Kincaid, Zoe (October 1926). "Playgoing in Present-Day Japan". Japan Overseas Travel Magazine. 15: 20.
* "Kabuki is most distinguished when it deals with the weird and grotesque, and the American visitor may not be at all surprised if among the insubstantial stage creations of the Japanese he becomes acquainted with the spirit of a cherry tree, or the transformation of a maid into a fox or a lion."
** Kincaid, Zoe (January 1927). "The Stage of Today in Japan". Japan Overseas Travel Magazine. 15: 8.
* "Throughout the realm, the Hina Matsuri will be observed in the homes of rich and poor alike when a series of shelves, one rising above the other, and covered with a red cloth will be placed in the best room of the dwelling. Here the treasured dolls and their furniture will be displayed for one day only."
* "The western observer no doubt upon first impression may regard it as a hardchip that the girls of a family should do no more than gaze upon the beautiful dolls and be satisfied, and that these bright creatures of silk, embroidery and brocade from the hands of the skilled craftsmen are not to be touched, only to be admired at a distance. In brief, they are education, and so become removed from the sphere of ordinary playthings."

** "Labour needs to own its policy on gender - and unequivocally back trans rights", The Guardian (6 April 2022).
* [In the late 1990s] But the conversations we had then were whether or not it was feminist to wear fishnets. There was never any subtext of violence against women. By the late 00s, lad-mag controversies were of a completely different nature. Danny Dyer had an agony uncle column in Zoo that he used to advise a reader to cut his ex's face to stop anyone else wanting her. Other advice was to set fire to a readers's girlfriend’s pubic hair that he didn't like. These were ghostwritten and as such can only really speak to the new mood in lad-mags, but two things had changed. One was a complete normalisation of violence against women and the other was a void where the humour used to be. The norm had been flipped: the argument in the 90s, that anything was fair game so long as it was funny, had turned into: "Anything is allowable, so long as I say it is funny."
