Daily Micro: Yesterday’s Artists in Today’s World ~ Norman Mailer/The Executioner’s Song

Acknowledging Norman:

Stanger: Then there are crimes that you consider worse than murder?

Gilmore: There’s all kinds of crimes, you know…what some governments do to their people, forms of brainwash, behavior modification…irreversible forms, like lobotomies, and ah, you know, Prolixin…You don’t interfere with somebody’s life. You let people met their own fate.

Mailer (in awareness without limitation): Meet, not make, not like the preemptive shit, Fallujah, Wounded Knee…

~ Stephen J. Bergstrom
