Mailer

Famous quotes containing the word mailer:

    The horror of the Twentieth Century was the size of each new event, and the paucity of its reverberation.
    —Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    Love was love, one could find it with anyone, one could find it anywhere. It was just that you could never keep it. Not unless you were ready to die for it.
    —Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    We live in a time which has created the art of the absurd. It is our art. It contains happenings, Pop art, camp, a theater of the absurd.... Do we have the art because the absurd is the patina of waste...? Or are we face to face with a desperate or most rational effort from the deepest resources of the unconscious of us all to rescue civilization from the pit and plague of its bedding?
    —Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
