Quote of the Week- Salvoj Zizek




Since we are featuring quotes from left-wing radicals during the month of May, we thought we'd go with someone we've never quoted before in Slovenian Marxist philosopher Salvoj Zizek, who is the subject of the 2005 documentary "Zizek!"

It turns out that Zizek, who is 61, is really into films, and he is not religion so even though I'm more politically moderate, we'd probably get along swell!

Here is today's quote:

"Cinema is the ultimate pervert art. It doesn't give what you desire- it tells you what how to desire it."
