Klosterman Quotes

Klosterman quote from classy quote

I also need to prepare myself for the inevitability of utter boredom: Very often, single people don't do shit. They do nothing, all night long. They sit in a recliner and watch TV. I've probably watched more television than anyone you've ever met, and I don't even own one. Terrible shows, good shows, Golf tournaments in Cancun. C-SPAN. Hours of Oprah. Law and Order. Lonely people love Law and Order, for whatever reason. They prefer the straight narratives. p60

But-when you really think about it-that emotional support only applies to the experience of living in public. We don't have ways to quantify ideas like amazing or successful or lovable without the feedback of an audience. Nobody sits by himself in an empty room and thinks I'm amazing. It's impossible to imagine how that would work. But being amazing is supposed to be what life is about. As a result, the windows of time people spend by themselves become these meaningless experiences that don't really count. It's filler. They're deleted scenes. pg 156
