William, Saroyan Quotes

This Sense Of Being Out Of Time Has Driven Thousands Of People From Their Homes Into Moving-picture Theaters Where New Universes Appear Before Them, With Emphasis On Man And His Major Problem: A Thing Called, Conveniently, Love. The Sunday Midnight Shows Do A Thriving Business, And The People Go Back To Their Homes, Sick With The Sickness Of Frustration; It Is This That Makes The City So Interesting At Night: The People Emerging From The Theaters, Smoking Cigarettes And Looking Desperate, Wanting Much, The Precision, The Glory, All The Loveliness Of Life: Wanting What Is Finest And Getting Nothing. It Is Saddening To See Them, But There Is Mockery In The Heart: One Walks Among Them, Laughing At Oneself And At Them, Their Midnight Staring.
