Marat: Why is everything so confused now
Everything I wrote or spoke
was considered and true
each argument was sound
And now
doubt
Why does everything sound false
-- Peter Weiss. The Persecution and Assassination of
Jean-Paul Marat as Performed by the Inmates of the Asylum of Charenton
Under the Direction of the Marquis de Sade (1964) tr. Geoffrey
