"It's a curse. Yes, it's a flame. It owns you. It has possession over you. You are not the master of yourself. You are consumed by this thing. And the books you write. They're not you. They're not me sitting here, this Henry Miller. They belong to someone else. It's terrible. You can never rest. People used to envy me my inspiration. I hate inspiration. It takes you over completely. I could never wait until it passed and I got rid of it."

Movies:
you mean the aesthetically devoid, commerce driven american film industry that remakes old films, fooling an already ingnorant generation into thinking they're originals while robbing all original films of any would be artistry to satiate the double digit IQ movie goers of this country? nah. i'd rather watch a nazi snuff film. christ, we have to be the laughing stock of world cinema...
Television:
you mean all the nauseatingly pathetic reality programming that makes minor celebrities out of talentless fools who take jobs away from gifted, struggling actors yet somehow remains the number one genre on the idiot box? yeah, i'll pass. but when an EXTREME EXCEPTION presents itself, i'll watch: strangers with candy, seinfeld, ARRESTED-FUCKING-DEVELOPMENT (reruns now, unfortunately), the daily show, family guy, upright citizens brigade, trigger happy tv, south park, in living color, chapelle's show, british parliament on c-span (its like an out of control kegger w/ out the beer), and jeopardy (helps stave off acute dementia due to acute alcohol and drug abuse)
