Roland Barthes

Myth is neither a lie nor a confession: it is an inflexion.

What I claim is to live to the full the contradiction of my time, which may well make sarcasm the condition of truth.

To eat steak rare... represents both a nature and a morality.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.

You have to be a bastard to make it, and that's a fact. And the Beatles are the biggest bastards on earth.

Shaft was a pop culture figure along t he lines of, I guess, Dirty Harry - except that he wasn't as much of a racist. So yeah, I was always a fan.
