MY KINGDOM FOR A HORSE. This famous phrase originally occurred in Act-V, Scene-IV of William Shakespeare’s play, Richard III. Here, King Richard III yells out loudly this famous phrase, “A horse, a horse! My kingdom for a horse!” In the middle of a battle, his horse is killed, while the king wanders to find it in the battlefield for hours, killing everything coming his way with fatalistic rage.

Only time I watched Scott Pilgrim before, I was drunk on a mediocre date (raise your hand if you've had this experience!) so I totally missed the Neko Case easter egg.

Neko Case | This Tornado Loves You
My love, I am the speed of sound
I left them motherless, fatherless
Their souls dangling inside-out from their mouths
But it's never enough
I want you
I carved your name across three counties
And ground it in with bloody hides
Broken necks will line the ditch
Till you stop it, stop it, stop this madness
I want you

"I wasn’t born of a whistle, or milked from a thistle at twilight
No; I was all horns and thorns, sprung out fully formed, knock-kneed and upright" — Joanna Newsom, "Sawdust and Diamonds"
"My voice is not the liquid waves
The perfect rings 'round a heron's legs
My voice a straight garroting wire
A stolen mile of fingerprints
Peeled up quiet from their dunes
Captured and re-spooled as ruin
To be used at a different time"
—Neko Case, "Hell-On"
random request: does anyone happen to have any other quotes in this, uh general genre? it's like "i know exactly how you have constructed me, and i will refute it in the strongest possible terms"
