I just have to think of Philadelphia now, and I get ideas, I hear the wind, and I'm off into the darkness somewhere.

More quotes by David Lynch
Dark things have always existed but they used to be in a proper balance with good when life was slower.
David Lynch
I don't really follow television so much, but in the old days there was a certain way TV was, and it wasn't really like cinema. I don't know how many ways it was different or the same, but it was not quite like cinema. Now, cinema can happen on television.
David Lynch
The greatest thing my father left me was a love for cutting wood - my love for sawing, especially pine wood.
David Lynch
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.
David Lynch
As collective consciousness goes higher and higher, all the differences in the world will be appreciated more and more. A definition of peace is unity in the midst of diversity. Or you could say happiness, love, and peace in the midst of all diversity. All the differences would be appreciated fully in the light of this peace.
David Lynch
Script is not finished until it's finished. There's many times, partway through a film, when an idea comes, and I say, How beautiful this is. This thing was not complete and look what's happened, look what's come along. And it just came along at what might be called a strange time rather than a normal time.
David Lynch
Humor is very interesting to me. My films are not comedies, but there's comedy in them from time to time, absurdities, just like in real life.
David Lynch
You've got to let accidents and strange things happen - let it work, so it's got an organic sort of quality ... By trying to remove yourself you can see some fantastic things sometimes.
David Lynch
I like people who, you know, as you go along in life, you know, a thing happens, and people become a seeker. They look for something to give them the path to their full potential. I like them to know about transcendental mediation, but they've got to make up their own mind to take it and use it.
David Lynch
The world is as you are.
David Lynch
Consciousness-Based Education is just plugging us all into the beautiful, eternal field within, and then watching things get better, which is what happens. It's a field of infinite, unbounded peace within every human being, and when you experience it, you enliven that peace.
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.
David Lynch
I'm obsessed with textures. We're surrounded by so much vinyl that I find myself constantly in pursuit of other textures. One time I removed all the hair from a mouse with Nair-Hair just to see what it looked like. And it looked beautiful.
David Lynch
Sex is a doorway to something so powerful and mystical, but movies usually depict it in a completely flat way.
David Lynch
My rule of thumb is, what Siskel and Ebert like, I don't, and vice versa.
David Lynch
The technology can change, but storytelling remains the same. It's just a digital world now instead of an analog world, but now the storytelling's the same. You got different tools. That's all.
David Lynch
I like things to be orderly.
David Lynch
I find the joy of the 'doing' increases. Creativity increases. Intuition increases. The pleasure of life grows. And negativity recedes.
David Lynch
Man is evolving...but it's difficult to see his progress with a Western perception of time. The Hindus think of time in much larger segments. They watch the hour hand of the clock while we in the West are preoccupied with the second hand.
David Lynch
Anger, stress, tension, depression, sorrow, hate, fear - these things start to retreat. And for a filmmaker, having this negativity lift away is money in the bank. When you're suffering you can't create.
David Lynch
