I think TV promulgates the idea that good art is just art which makes people like and depend on the vehicle that brings them the art.

We're not keen on the idea of the story sharing its valence with the reader. But the reader's own life 'outside' the story changes the story.

The great thing about irony is that it splits things apart, gets up above them so we can see the flaws and hypocrisies and duplicates.

Semua orang identik dalam keyakinan rahasia tak terucap mereka bahwa jauh di lubuk hati mereka berbeda dari orang lain.

Fiction's about what it is to be a human being.

The problem is that once the rules of art are debunked, and once the unpleasant realities the irony diagnoses are revealed and diagnosed, 'then' what do we do?

This diagnosis can be done in about two lines. It doesn't engage anybody.

Nuclear weapons and TV have simply intensified the consequences of our tendencies, upped the stakes.

It seems important to find ways of reminding ourselves that most 'familiarity' is meditated and delusive.

The interesting thing is why we're so desperate for this anesthetic against loneliness.
