A Hero Is A Goddam

The First Mistake Of Art Is To Assume That It's Serious.

What All This Posturing And Fake Glamor Results In Is A Vast Detachment And Cynicism On The Part Of The Artists. Since It's Impossible To Have Respect For An Audience That'll Take Just About Anything You Care To Dish Out, And The Impassive Demeanor Is So Central To The Role, A General Numbnose Is All That Can Be Expected.

Personally I Feel That Real Rock 'n' Roll May Be On The Way Out, Just Like Adolescence As A Relatively Innocent Transitional Period Is On The Way Out. What We Have Instead Is A Small Island Of New Free Music Surrounded By Some Good Reworkings Of Past Idioms And A Vast Sargasso Sea Of Absolute Garbage.

The Only Questions Worth Asking Today Are Whether Humans Are Going To Have Any Emotions Tomorrow, And What The Quality Of Life Will Be If The Answer Is No.

Style Is Originality; Fashion Is Fascism. The Two Are Eternally And Unalterably Opposed.
