More From Manuel Puig

The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life. unlike painting and literature, the cinema both gives to life and takes from it, and i try to render this concept in my films. literature and painting both exist as art from the very start; the cinema doesn't.

Israel is a fulfillment, and as a fulfillment, it is flawed. dreams fulfilled are imperfect. and, israel is imperfect, of course it is - a far cry from the monumental dreams of the founding fathers. one of the reasons is that their dreams were unrealistic. they were bigger than life. these were messianic dreams, dreams about total redemption for the jews, for the world. such dreams do not come true, not in their entirety.
Dream Father Redemption
We are effectively destroying ourselves by violence masquerading as love. i am a specialist, god help me, in events in inner space and time, in experiences called thoughts, images, reveries, dreams, visions, hallucinations, dreams of memories, memories of dreams, memories of visions, dreams of hallucinations, refractions of refractions of refractions of that original alpha and omega of experience and reality, that reality on whose repression, denial, splitting, projection, falsification, and general desecration and profanation our civilisation as much as anything is based.
Dream Memories Reality
Talking about dreams is like talking about movies, since the cinema uses the language of dreams; years can pass in a second and you can hop from one place to another. it's a language made of image. and in the real cinema, every object and every light means something, as in a dream.
Dream Real Mean
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.
Different
In dreams you don't need to make any distinctions between things. not at all. boundaries don't exist. so in dreams there are hardly ever collisions. even if there are, they don't hurt. reality is different. reality bites. reality, reality.

The only place where your dream becomes impossible is in your own thinking.
Inspirational Positive Dream
There is will in the thought, there is none in the dream. the dream, which is completely spontaneous, takes and keeps, even in the gigantic and the ideal, the form of our mind. nothing springs more directly and more sincerely from the very bottom of our souls than our unreflected and indefinite aspirations towards the splendours of destiny.
Dream Spring Destiny
At one point, the old school club retires and you're next up to bat, but if you stop before your time, you will see someone else live your dream.
Dream School Bats
Since it doesn't cost a dime to dream, you'll never shortchange yourself when you stretch your imagination.
