More quotes by David Simon
We have no sense of the collective anymore in America. The response to Katrina was proof positive of that.
David Simon
I'm just a swell guy. No, that's a ridiculous notion - if you're being an asshole to people, you're being an asshole, that's all there is to it. It can't be rationalized because you wrote something worthwhile. First obligation is to other people.
David Simon
We didn't create the culture of film. We certainly market it better than anyone in the world, but film could have happened anywhere. It's not distinctly American, as witnessed by the fact that there are film communities throughout the world that tell stories to their own cultural liking.
David Simon
America is a country that is now utterly divided when it comes to its society, its economy, its politics. There are definitely two Americas. I live in one, on one block in Baltimore that is part of the viable America, the America that is connected to its own economy, where there is a plausible future for the people born into it.
David Simon
What drugs haven't destroyed, the war against them has
David Simon
All stress is ultimately related to loss or the fear of loss.
David Simon
The why is what makes journalism an adult game. The why is what makes policy coherent and useful. The why is what transforms bureaucrats and foot soldiers and political leaders into viable instruments of rational and affirmative change. The why is everything and without it, the very suggestion of human progress becomes a cosmic joke.
David Simon
It seems that in Baltimore, one of the most violent cities in America, jurors are far more reluctant to convict criminal defendants than in the suburban enclaves that ring the city.
David Simon
From a spiritual perspective, freedom from attachment to a particular outcome is the ultimate expression of liberation. We can choose the actions we take, but we cannot control the consequences of our choices.
David Simon
Health is a return to our memory of wholeness.
David Simon
More people pay attention to fiction and to narrative than pay attention to journalism. That's quite sad. More people pay attention to television than to prose. That's equally sad, if not more so.
David Simon
Meditation is like a bath for the mind it clears and refreshes our windows of perception, allowing more light, love, and happiness to flow into lives.
David Simon
I encourage you from the depths of my heart and being to know that you have the full capacity and the right to make changes that will enliven your awareness, raise the succulent joy in your heart, and experience the vitality that comes from living in balance.
David Simon
It's been said that no man is a hero to a newspaperman, and I spent too many years as an ink-stained wretch.
David Simon
If I had to guess and put a name on it, I'd say that at some point, the drug war was as much a function of class and social control as it was of racism.
David Simon
You have the capacity to change the plotline of your life, even if you've been acting from the same script since before you can remember.
David Simon
Eating a meal with full awareness can be a powerful, enlightening, and healing experience.
David Simon
It is your birthright to have a life of meaning and purpose. Whether or not the people in your life have consistently celebrated your incarnation, you deserve to celebrate your existence.
David Simon
The trick to making a story matter is that every now and then, somebody you care about has to go. If it's somebody that you don't care about, then it doesn't really have - the stakes aren't there. But if you do that every now and then, then the story matters to people. And there are actual stakes involved, emotional stakes.
David Simon
When we spend time in silence, we can hear the voice of our soul whispering its sacred message and encouraging us to make choices that bring us more happiness, health, love, meaning, and peace.
