Extracts from Speeches
“Right now, we gotta get peace back in the world. Peace is a real thing.”
David Lynch (1946) American filmmaker, television director, visual artist, musician and occasional actor
As quoted in David Lynch's $1B Peace Plan" in The New York Post (22 October 2003) http://www.lynchnet.com/articles/peacepost.html <br class="br">Context: There's this beautiful ocean of bliss and consciousness that is able to be reached by any human being by diving within, which is really peaceful and harmonious and can be enlivened by the group process. This group is a peace-creating group. It saturates the atmosphere. This is all about establishing peace. Right now, we gotta get peace back in the world. Peace is a real thing.
