Susan Sontag: Top 10 Quotes
- Never worry about being obsessive. I like obsessive people. Obsessive people make great art.
- A writer, I think, is someone who pays attention to the world.
- Science fiction films are not about science. They are about disaster, which is one of the oldest subjects of art.
- Life is a movie; death is a photograph.
- A good book is an education of the heart. It enlarges your sense of human possibility what human nature is of what happens in the world. It’s a creator of inwardness.
- What I really wanted was every kind of life, and the writer’s life seemed the most inclusive.
- If I thought that what I’m doing when I write is expressing myself, I’d junk the typewriter. Writing is a much more complicated activity that that.
- My library is an archive of longings.
- Literature was the passport to enter a larger life; that is, the zone of freedom. Literature was freedom. Especially in a time in which the values of reading and inwardness are so strenuously challenged, literature is freedom.
- Writing is a mysterious activity.
Susan Sontag was an American writer, professor, literary icon, and political activist. Beginning with the publication of her 1964 essay Notes on ‘Camp’, Sontag became a cultural and intellectual celebrity.

Exclusive Interview with Makoto Aida
Makoto Aida has the ability to simplify a complex concept into a roaring vision of chaotic poetry and grotesque beauty. His art explores the dynamics of the Japanese psyche, incorporating young girls, businessmen, war and politics. Some of his paintings are so big and painstakingly detailed that they take years to complete. For the next several months, the Mori Art Museum in Tokyo, Japan is holding a retrospective exhibition that spans his 20-year career. Aida’s art includes manga-style painting, traditional Japanese painting, photography, sculpture, video and installation. When Hi-Fructose caught up with the artist, he was at the museum working on an on-going project called, “The Monument of Nothing.” It’s a series of sculptures constructed only out of cardboard and tape. To assist him, he enlists young artists of any skill level to volunteer their time and effort to create their own sculpture. During the interview Aida talked about various topics ranging from his upbringing in a strict household, to merging storytelling into his art.
