More From Antonin Scalia

We must be forewarned that only rarely does a text easily lend itself to the reader's curiosity... the reading of a text is a transaction between the reader and the text, which mediates the encounter between the reader and writer. it is a composition between the reader and the writer in which the reader "rewrites" the text making a determined effort not to betray the author's spirit.

The other day i got a text from a boy, but it wasn't hot. i mean, if you're going to text me every day, you haven't seen me for months and you're trying to seduce me, you'd better spice up that text and make it more exciting than 'how was your day? i hope you're having a beautiful one.' sadly, i haven't been doing a lot of kissing lately.

Because the great thing about fairy tales and folk tales is that there is no authentic text. it's not like the text of paradise lost or james joyce's ulysses, and you have to adhere to that exact text.

Many liberals believe in god; many conservatives do. what matters is not whether people believe in god but what text, if any, they believe to be divine. those who believe that he has spoken through a given text will generally think differently from those who believe that no text is divine. such people will usually get their values from other texts, or more likely from their conscience and heart.

We all make choices. believe me, i would like to write the hit of the world. it's not like i have any desire to be in the shadows. my vision isn't marketing. some people want to sell 6 million albums. there's nothing wrong with that. it's just not what i do. i'd rather look at a piece of work and say it's great rather than it's successful.
