Power Floats Like Money, Like Language, Like

What You Have To Do Is Enter The Fiction Of America, Enter America As Fiction. It Is, Indeed, On This Fictive Basis That It Dominates The World.

The Us ... Cultivates No Origin Or Mythical Authenticity; It Has No Past And No Founding Truth ... It Lives In A Perpetual Present. In The Us Everything Human Is Artificial. The Country Is Without Hope. What Is Arresting Here Is ... Both The Absence Of Architecture In The Cities And The Dizzying Absence Of Emotion And Character In The Faces And Bodies.

We Are All Hostages, And We Are All Terrorists. This Circuit Has Replaced That Other One Of Masters And Slaves, The Dominating And The Dominated, The Exploiters And The Exploited. It Is Worse Than The One It Replaces, But At Least It Liberates Us From Liberal Nostalgia And The Ruses Of History.

Fiction Is Not Imagination. It Is What Anticipates Imagination By Giving It The Form Of Reality.
