"My childhood was elegant homes, tree-lined streets, the milkman, building backyard forts, droning airplanes, blue skies, picket fences, green grass, cherry trees. Middle America as it's supposed to be. But on the cherry tree there's this pitch oozing out – some black, some yellow, and millions of red ants crawling all over it. I discovered that if one looks a little closer at this beautiful world, there are always red ants underneath. Because I grew up in a perfect world, other things were a contrast."

"What a heavy load Einstein must've had. Fuckin' morons, everywhere."

I have never seen a single one of his movies but I love watching interviews with him, he had an amazing presence and so much energy.

If you only watch one, I think Fire Walk With Me is the most representative. If you like it, there's a lot more to explore. If not, then maybe Lynch isn't your thing.

I think that "fire walk with me" poem is so clunky I've refused to watch anything he's ever made.
