Top Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By James P. Hogan

Scientists are the easiest to fool ... They think in straight, predictable, directable, and therefore misdirectable, lines. The only world they know is the one where everything has a logical explanation and things are what they appear to be. Children and conjurors-they terrify me. Scientists are no problem; against them I feel quite confident. — James P. Hogan

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Jean Baudrillard

We will live in this world, which for us has all the disquieting strangeness of the desert and of the simulacrum, with all the veracity of living phantoms, of wandering and simulating animals that capital, that the death of capital has made of us - because the desert of cities is equal to the desert of sand - the jungle of signs is equal to that of the forests - the vertigo of simulacra is equal to that of nature - only the vertiginous seduction of a dying system remains, in which work buries work, in which value buries value - leaving a virgin, sacred space without pathways, continuous as Bataille wished it, where only the wind lifts the sand, where only the wind watches over the sand. — Jean Baudrillard

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Piper Faust

The only feel-good situation I could hypothetically equate it to would be lying in a kiddie pool full of cotton candy while spinning around and around with my tongue hanging out! — Piper Faust

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Jean Baudrillard

But what becomes of the divinity when it reveals itself in icons, when it is multiplied in simulacra? Does it remain the supreme power that is simply incarnated in images as a visible theology? Or does it volatilize itself in the simulacra that, alone, deploy their power and pomp of fascination - the visible machinery of icons substituted for the pure and intelligible Idea of God? — Jean Baudrillard

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Annette Bening

There's love for your parents, your family, your spouse, your partner, your friends, but the nature of the connection you have with your child, there's nothing like it. It has its own character and it's so serious and so powerful, and so it's a prism through which I see everything. — Annette Bening

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Ezra Taft Benson

And so today, the undermining of the home and family is on the increase, with the devil anxiously working to displace the father as the head of the home and create rebellion among the children. [Isaiah] describes the condition when [he] states, "As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them." and then these words follow-and consider these words seriously when you think of those political leaders who are promoting birth control and abortion: "O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths." — Ezra Taft Benson

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Steven Howard

If it touches the customer, it's a marketing issue! — Steven Howard

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Jean Baudrillard

The old slogan 'truth is stranger than fiction,' that still corresponded to the surrealist phase of this estheticization of life, is obsolete. There is no more fiction that life could possibly confront, even victoriously-it is reality itself that disappears utterly in the game of reality-radical disenchantment, the cool and cybernetic phase following the hot stage of fantasy. — Jean Baudrillard

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Baudrillard Jean

Today abstraction is no longer that of the map, the double, the mirror, or the concept. Simulation is no longer that of a territory, a referential being or substance. It is the generation by models of a real without origin or reality: A hyperreal. The territory no longer precedes the map, nor does it survive it. It is nevertheless the map that precedes the territory - precession of simulacra - that engenders the territory. — Baudrillard Jean

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By George Carlin

You know something I could really do without? The Space Shuttle ... It's irresponsible. The last thing we should be doing is sending our grotesquely distorted DNA out into space. — George Carlin

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Ron Kaufman

If your customers have to ask you for it, you haven't been thinking far enough ahead. — Ron Kaufman

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Pierre Schaeffer

Something new has been added, a new art of sound. Am I wrong in calling it music? — Pierre Schaeffer

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Jean Baudrillard

The media represents world that is more real than reality that we can experience. People lose the ability to distinguish between reality and fantasy. They also begin to engage with the fantasy without realizing what it really is.
They seek happiness and fulfilment through the simulacra of reality, e.g. media and avoid the contact/interaction with the real world. — Jean Baudrillard

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Cyrus Vance

My proposal to re-establish diplomatic relations - not necessarily friendly relations, but diplomatic relations - is a sensible, simple, and straightforward approach that will finally get us off dead center. — Cyrus Vance

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Keith Miller

I remember when I was a little boy my father didn't love me; he couldn't. He loved my older brother but he couldn't love me somehow, at least not in a way I could understand it. — Keith Miller

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Waylon Jennings

Heroes put to the test, keeping a promise, doing their best. — Waylon Jennings

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Barbara Marciniak

For those who confuse you, recognize that their confusion is theirs and your clarity is yours. — Barbara Marciniak

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Jean Baudrillard

One can live with the idea of distorted truth. But their metaphysical despair came from the idea that the image didn't conceal anything at all, and that these images were in essence not images, such as an original model would have made them, but perfect simulacra, forever radiant with their
own fascination. Thus this death of the divine referential must be exorcised at all costs. One can see that the iconoclasts, whom one accuses of disdaining and negating images, were those who accorded them their true value, in contrast to the iconolaters who only saw reflections in them and were content to venerate a filigree God. — Jean Baudrillard

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Jean Baudrillard

And so art is everywhere, since artifice is at the very heart of reality. And so art is dead, not only because its critical transcendence is gone, but because reality itself, entirely impregnated by an aesthetic which is inseparable from its own structure, has been confused with its own image. Reality no longer has the time to take on the appearance of reality. It no longer even surpasses fiction: it captures every dream even before it takes on the appearance of a dream. — Jean Baudrillard

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Richard Rorty

If the Left forms no such alliances, it will never have any effect on the laws of the United States. To form them will require the cultural Left to forget about Baudrillard's account of America as Disneyland--as a county of simulacra--and to start proposing changes in the laws of a real country, inhabited by real people who are enduring unnecessary suffering, much of which can be cured by governmental action. Nothing would do more to resurrect the American Left than agreement on a concrete political platform, a People's Charter, a list of specific reforms. The existence of such a list--endlessly reprinted and debated, equally familiar to professors and production workers, imprinted on the memory both of professional people and of those who clean the professionals' toilets--might revitalize leftist politics. — Richard Rorty

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Kiki Archer

always tell the truth and you'll never have to remember your words. — Kiki Archer

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Jean Baudrillard

Postmodernity is said to be a culture of fragmentary sensations, eclectic nostalgia, disposable simulacra, and promiscuous superficiality, in which the traditionally valued qualities of depth, coherence, meaning, originality, and authenticity are evacuated or dissolved amid the random swirl of empty signals. — Jean Baudrillard

Baudrillard Simulacra Quotes By Teresa Nielsen Hayden

Just because you're on their side doesn't mean they're on your side. — Teresa Nielsen Hayden
