Baudrillard

Famous quotes containing the word baudrillard:

    Information can tell us everything. It has all the answers. But they are answers to questions we have not asked, and which doubtless don’t even arise.
    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    Sadder than destitution, sadder than a beggar is the man who eats alone in public. Nothing more contradicts the laws of man or beast, for animals always do each other the honor of sharing or disputing each other’s food.
    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    The desert is a natural extension of the inner silence of the body. If humanity’s language, technology, and buildings are an extension of its constructive faculties, the desert alone is an extension of its capacity for absence, the ideal schema of humanity’s disappearance.
    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
