“People speaking into handheld devices while they walk down the street and saying to the device, "I'm walking down the street now." People are enslaved. I was just up in the country for a few days last week and it was great: no television, no telephone, no nothing. I walked through the woods, sat around, smoked. And it was lovely. I think the desire to be free has mutated, and we now live in an era when the slaves celebrate their slavery - this whole corporate concept of being part of a "team" at work.” PeopleThinkingCountryDesireWeekTeamWalkingSlaverySlaveLovelyCelebrateSat Author:Nick Tosches
“Steiner has here transformed the vaporous conceptions of his life, the vapors of what never was and never will be, from their aeriform state to a fine and ethereal substantiality. My Unwritten Books is a gathering of shades, an elegant and eloquent gathering of mind, feeling, and autumnal passion. (...) And that is the lovely irony of this unique little book. None of these unwritten books should have been written. They are better here, as they are, untamed and errant phantoms of a brilliance whose emanations no one mortal lifetime could ever accommodate in full.” ShouldMindLittlesHas BeensBookStatesFeelingsPassionWrittenFineUniqueShould HaveLifetimeLovelyMortalsIronyConceptionShadeTransformedGatheringElegantBrillianceShould Have BeenPhantomsEloquentAccommodateUnwrittenEtherealVaporUntamed Author:Nick Tosches
