David Foster Wallace
“Te occidere possunt sed te edere possunt nefas est.”
David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest

David Foster Wallace
“I'm not saying that television is vulgar and dumb because the people who compose the Audience are vulgar and dumb. Television is the way it is simply because people tend to be extremely similar in their vulgar and prurient and dumb interests and wildly different in their refined and aesthetic and noble interests.”
David Foster Wallace
