“[Already torch-beams were moving about in the darkness, as the residents made their first confused attempts to discover where they were.] Laing watched them contently, ready to welcome them to their new world. ”
“I believe in the power of the imagination to remake the world, to release the truth within us, to hold back the night, to transcend death, to charm motorways, to ingratiate ourselves with birds, to enlist the confidences of madmen.” ”
—J. G. Ballard (November 15, 1930 - April 19, 2009)
