      “Art should disturb the comfortable and comfort the disturbed”

      Drugs and alcohol disturb you, which means that 1. They make you more likely to make art and 2. They technically qualify as art themselves if you are comfortable before you use them

      I don’t know why he’s so good. His plots were stupid and his characters are 1 dimensional, but the books were great.

      He’ll have a plot like “An old polaroid camera always prints a picture of a mean dog, with the dog getting closer to the camera each shot” and somehow it ends up being a good read?
