Quotes by Lisa Robertson  (?)

“The biggest problem with melancholy is that it is more detailed than the world.”
Lisa Robertson

“The gaze is a machine that can invent belief and can destroy what is tender. In this way it is like an animal or a season or a politics, or like the dark bosco of the park. Our scopic researches aligned us, we liked to think, with the great tradition of the natural philosophers, for whom seeing was indeed and irrevocably inexperienced, and wherein the admission of such inexperience served as an emblem or badge of belonging. What can we claim about the park, about the sorrows that are and were not our own? Nothing. We simply sign ourselves against silence.”
Lisa Robertson, Occasional Work and Seven Walks from the Office for Soft Architecture

“You’re also collecting an archive of the absurdity of value.”
Lisa Robertson, Cinema of the Present
