Recycled Bits & Pieces
“Imagination can’t create anything new, can it? It only recycles bits and pieces from the world and reassembles them into visions.
. . . So, when we think we’re escaping the unbearable ordinariness, and well, untruthfulness of our lives, it’s really only the same old ordinariness and falseness rearranged into the appearance of novelty and truth. Nothing unknown is knowable.”
- Angels in America DVD, HBO Home Box Office, 2004. approximately 37 minutes in.
