" Maybe a mouse gets to thinking pretty early on how the whole world is run by these enormous feet. Well, from where I sit, I figure the world is run by one thing and this one thing only. Panic with a dog-face, devil-face, hag-face, whore-face, panic in capital letters with no face at all—it’s the same Johnny Panic, awake or asleep. "

― Sylvia Plath , Johnny Panic and the Bible of Dreams: Short Stories, Prose and Diary Excerpts
