Film is more than the twentieth-century art. It’s another part of the twentieth-century mind. It’s the world seen from inside. We’ve come to a certain point in the history of film. If a thing can be filmed, the film is implied in the thing itself.
Don DeLilloShit is universal no matter which language.
Don DeLilloHe speaks in your voice, American, and there's a shine in his eye that's halfway hopeful.
Don DeLilloLonging on a large scale makes history.
Don DeLilloOnly a catastrophe gets our attention. We want them, we depend on them. As long as they happen somewhere else. This is where California comes in. Mud slides, brush fires, coastal erosion, mass killings, et cetera. We can relax and enjoy these disasters because in our hearts we feel that California deserves whatever it gets. Californians invented the concept of life-style. This alone warrants their doom.
Don DeLilloThe less important you are in an office, the more they expect the happy smile.
Don DeLilloWe're a silver gleaming death machine!
Don DeLilloEverything that goes on in your whole life is a result of molecules rushing around somewhere in your brain.
Don DeLilloTalent is everything. If you've got talent, nothing else matters. You can screw up your personal life something terrible. So what. If you've got talent, it's there in reserve. Anybody who has talent they know they have it and that's it. It's what makes you what you are. It tells you you're you. Talent is everything; sanity is nothing. I'm convinced of it. I think I had something once. I showed promise, didn't I? But I was too sane. I couldn't make the leap out of my own soul into the soul of the universe. That's the leap they all made. From Blake to Rimbaud. I don't write anything but checks. I read science fiction. I go on business trips to South Bend and Rochester. The one in Minnesota. Not Rochester, New York. Rochester, Minnesota. I couldn't make the leap.
Don DeLilloI feel sad for people and the queer part we play in our own disasters.
