We only dream of images we already have inside of us.
David Lynch

Freedom. It's like no constraints, an opening, and then barriers going away and lifting and breaking and experimentation and...it's like attempting for something.

I have been 'diving within' through the Transcendental Meditation technique for over 30 years. It has changed my life, my world. I am not alone. Millions of other people of all ages, religions, and walks of life practice the technique and enjoy incredible benefits.

You need contrast and conflict in order to tell a story. Stories need to have dark and light, turmoil, all those things. But that does not mean the filmmaker has to suffer in order to show the suffering. Stories should have the suffering, not the people.

I have a profound admiration for Fellini. I met him lately and he's just fantastic. I feel very close to him even though he's very Italian. But his films could have been made in every country. When I say, I feel close to him, then also because we're both born on January 20th.

I like to make films because I like to go into another world. I like to get lost in another world. And film to me is a magical medium that makes you dream... allows you to dream in the dark. It's just a fantastic thing, to get lost inside the world of film.

I didn't watch much TV as a kid and I don' t watch it now. I don' t find anything beautiful or unique to the medium, and the only thing you can do on TV that you can't do in film is make a continuing story - which is so cool!

Let's get rid of the suffering and bring real peace, which is not just the absence of war, but the absence of all negativity.
David Lynch

I always loved smokestack industry, and I love towns or cities that have grown up around factories.
David Lynch
Image
When you practice Transcendental Meditation you are given a key to the deepest level of life.
David Lynch
Image
I would rather not make a film than make one where I don't have final cut.
David Lynch

In my case what happened is that within about two weeks of beginning meditation, the anger already started to go away. My wife came to me and said, What's going on? and I said, What are you talking about? To which she replied, This anger, where did it go? I didn't even realize that my anger had been going away.

I like to remember things my own way. How I remembered them, not necessarily the way they happened.
David Lynch

Negativity is the enemy of creativity.
David Lynch
Image
Every single thing in the world that was made by anyone started with an idea. So to catch one that is powerful enough to fall in love with, it is one of the most beautiful experiences. It's like being jolted with electricity and knowledge at the same time.

Image
There is an ocean of pure vibrant consciousness inside each one of us.
David Lynch
Image
You don't need a special place to meditate. You can transcend anywhere in the world. The unified field is here, and there, and everywhere.
David Lynch
Image
The ocean of solutions is within, enliven that. It's a world of clues, a world of mystery but the mystery can get solved, you can find a lot of answers for these things within.

When the going gets tough, everyone leaves.

Life is filled with abstractions, and the only way to make heads or tails of it is going through intuition.
