Jean Baudrillard Quotes

«Everywhere one seeks to produce meaning, to make the world signify, to render it visible. We are not, however, in danger of lacking meaning; quite the contrary, we are gorged with meaning and it is killing us.»
Author: Jean Baudrillard | About: Life, Meaning | Keywords: gorge, gorged, lacking, signify
«Democracy is the menopause of Western society, the Grand Climacteric of the body social. Fascism is its middle-aged lust.»
Author: Jean Baudrillard | About: Democracy | Keywords: climacteric, menopause
«Genius is childhood recaptured.»
«Depression moods lead, almost invariably, to accidents. But, when they occur, our mood changes again, since the accident shows we can draw the world in our wake, and that we still retain some degree of power even when our spirits are low. A series of accidents creates a positively light-hearted state, out of consideration for this strange power.»
«If there is a species which is more maltreated than children, then it must be their toys, which they handle in an incredibly off-hand manner. Toys are thus the end point in that long chain in which all the conditions of despotic high-handedness are in play which enchain beings one to another, from one species to another --cruel divinities to their sacrificial victims, from masters to slaves, from adults to children, and from children to their objects.»
«Cowardice and courage are never without a measure of affectation. Nor is love. Feelings are never true. They play with their mirrors.»
Author: Jean Baudrillard | Keywords: affectation, mirrors
«Never resist a sentence you like, in which language takes its own pleasure and in which, after having abused it for so long, you are stupefied by its innocence.»
«Driving is a spectacular form of amnesia. Everything is to be discovered, everything to be obliterated.»
«As for freedom, it will soon cease to exist in any shape or form. Living will depend upon absolute obedience to a strict set of arrangements, which it will no longer be possible to transgress. The air traveler is not free. In the future, life's passengers will be even less so: they will travel through their lives fastened to their (corporate) seats.»
«Television knows no night. It is perpetual day. TV embodies our fear of the dark, of night, of the other side of things.»
