"Big city... overgrown with weeds... but flowering weeds. On every corner... a wrecking crew... and something new and crooked going up catty-corner to that. Windows missing in every edifice, like broken teeth... gritty wind... and a gray, high sky full of ravens." ... "Piles of trash... but lapidary like rubies and obsidian... and diamond-colored cows spit streamers in the wind... and voting booths. And everyone in Balenciaga gowns with red corsages. Big dance palaces full of music and lights. Racial impurity and gender confusion. And all the deities... are Creole. Mulatto. Brown as the mouths of rivers. Race, taste... and history... are finally overcome."
- Heaven as described in "Angels in America" by Tony Kushner
