Famous Quotes By Gary Lachman
The self is who we truly are, but the persona or mask (the word comes from the Latin for an actor's mask) is the face we turn to the world in order to deal with it. A persona is absolutely necessary, but the problem is that we often become identified with it, to the detriment of our self, a dilemma that the existential philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre recognized in his notion of mauvaise foi, or "bad faith," when one becomes associated exclusively with one's social role. — Gary Lachman
Manson didn't 'kill the sixties', as some have suggested. They committed suicide, ODed on excess, high expectations, and a belief that in getting rid of all repression - what I've called 'giving way to strange forces' - some pure, natural soul would emerge. They were wrong. — Gary Lachman
