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.

More quotes by David Lynch
The artist does not have to suffer to show suffering.
David Lynch
I don't think that people accept the fact that life doesn't make sense. I think it makes people terribly uncomfortable. It seems like religion and myth were invented against that, trying to make sense out of it.
David Lynch
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.
David Lynch
You're right on the money with that. We're all like detectives in life. There's something at the end of the trail that we're all looking for.
David Lynch
Being in darkness and confusion is interesting to me. But behind it you can rise out of that and see things the way the really are.
David Lynch
I love industry. Pipes. I love fluid and smoke. I love man-made things. I like to see people hard at work, and I like to see sludge and man-made waste.
David Lynch
Transcendental Meditation is not a religion, it's not against any religion, it's for human beings, no matter what color, what religion, what walk of life. If you're a human being, it will work for you. And you will be very glad you found this technique and took advantage of it.
David Lynch
I felt I should have been the happiest person in the world. But I looked inside, and that happiness was only on the surface, not so deep. Beneath it was hollow. Up until that time, I had been thinking meditation was a joke, a fad and a waste of time.
David Lynch
We all have at least two sides. The world we live in is a world of opposites. And the trick is to reconcile those opposing things. I've always liked both sides. In order to appreciate one you have to know the other. The more darkness you can gather up, the more light you can see too.
David Lynch
There is an ocean of creativity within every human being.
David Lynch
We're all like detectives. We want to figure things out. Life, you know, we want to figure out life, and we want to figure out what's going on, so it's beautiful. It's beautiful that people are thinking.
David Lynch
Sometimes film kills the room to dream.
David Lynch
I know club music has to be infectious and it's got to make you move.
David Lynch
I think part of the reason ideas haven't come in is that the world of cinema is changing so drastically, and in a weird way, feature films I think have become cheap. Everything is kind of throwaway. It's experienced and then forgotten.
David Lynch
Two half hitches around the horn will hold the devil as sure as you're born.
David Lynch
There is an ocean of pure vibrant consciousness inside each one of us.
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
Unfortunately, my ideas are not what you'd call commercial, and money really drives the boat these days. So I don't know what my future is. I don't have a clue what I'm going to be able to do in the world of cinema.
David Lynch
It's crazy to close doors to any genres.
David Lynch
The greatest thing my father left me was a love for cutting wood - my love for sawing, especially pine wood.
