“In a car you're always in a compartment, and because you're used to it you don't realize that through that car window everything you see is just more TV. You're a passive observer and it is all moving by you boringly in a frame.

“Is it hard?'

“Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read.”
