Irish novelist 1981Related quotes
“The true miracle is not walking on water or walking in air, but simply walking on this earth.”
“When you're an artist, you pick up on certain things that are in the air.”
As quoted in "Lost Highway" interview by Mikal Gilmore in Rolling Stone magazine (6 March 1997) http://www.lynchnet.com/lh/lhrs1.html
Context: When you're an artist, you pick up on certain things that are in the air. You just feel it. It's not like you're sitting down, thinking, "What can I do to really mess things up?" You're getting ideas, and then the ideas feed into a story, and the story takes shape. And if you're honest about it and you're thinking about characters and what they do, you now see that your ideas are about trouble. You're feeling more depth, and you're describing something that is going on in some way.
“You said you were going for a walk!? What kind of walk takes six hours?"
"A long one?”
