JG Ballard

Extraído da entrevista de JG Ballard sobre seu último romance "Millenium People":

"My real fear is that boredom and inertia may lead people to follow a deranged leader with far fewer moral scruples than Richard Gould, that we will put on jackboots and black uniforms and the aspect of the killer simply to relieve the boredom."

"Whether the internet or any other technological marvel can halt the slide into boredom and conformism I seriously doubt. I suspect that (as I pointed out in Super-Cannes) the human race will inevitably move like a sleepwalker towards that vast resource it has hesitated to tap - its own psychopathy. This adventure playground of the soul is waiting for us with its gates wide open, and admission is free."

Arrepios.

Leia a entrevista do The Guardian, vale a pena. Fala muito sobre arte, sobre a astúcia dos artistas e a falta de astúcia dos escritores, na opinião dele.
