summer in the city


"I want to be free of cities and sexual entanglements. Heat. This is what cities mean to me. You get off the train and you are hit with the full blast. The heat of air, traffic and people. The heat of food and sex. The heat of tall buildings. The heat that floats out of the subways and the tunnels. It's always fifteen degrees hotter in the cities. Heat rises from the sidewalks and falls from the poisoned sky. The buses breathe heat. Heat emanates from crowds of shoppers and office workers. The entire infrastructure is based on heat, desperately uses up heat, breeds more heat."

- Don Delillo White Noise

Murray's always been a favorite character of mine. He likes the way it sounds when intelligent women cross their legs.
