The product of the artist has become less important than the fact of the artist. We wish to absorb this person. We wish to devour someone who has experienced the tragic. In our society this person is much more important than anything he might create.

  • -- David Mamet 大卫·马梅

艺术家的作品已经不像艺术家的事实那么重要了。我们希望吸收这个人。我们希望吞掉那些经历过悲剧的人。在我们的社会中,这个人比他可能创造的任何东西都重要得多。
