“Lunedì.
Comunque nel frattempo è stata trovata la spiegazione scientifica del blues del lunedì: Dio ha creato il mondo in sei giorni, la domenica si è riposato, il lunedì ha guardato quello che aveva fattoe gli è venuta una tristezza, ma una tristezza... E così ci guarda ogni lunedì, nella sua infinita disperazione.”

“David Foster Wallace: I think one of the insidious lessons about TV is the meta-lesson that you’re dumb. This is all you can do. This is easy, and you’re the sort of person who really just wants to sit in a chair and have it easy. When in fact there are parts of us, in a way, that are a lot more ambitious than that. And what we need, I think—and I’m not saying I’m the person to do it. But I think what we need is seriously engaged art, that can teach again that we’re smart. And that there’s stuff that TV and movies—although they’re great at certain things—cannot give us.”
