Apollinaire said a poet should be 'of his time.' I say objects of the Digital Age belong in newspapers, not literature. When I read a novel, I don
Read not the Times, read the Eternities.
Bill: Newspapers take more liberty with the fact than E! True Hollywood Story.
Jerry: You ever been on the street? Arley: My mom took us pretty close. Jerry: Well, you can't know. Not until you look at a dumpster. But when you climb into that thing for the first time and you pull those newspapers over you, that's when you know you've messed your life up.
