I love the part where she's on the swing and the rock falls off... it's a two person swing, it's meant to be done jointly by two people, like in a relationship, but she's the only one pushing. And then the rock even falls off, BECAUSE of the motion, because of the work she's putting in, and she has to pick it up and put it back on herself. She's doing all the work in the relationship

Interpretation is a radical strategy for conserving an old text, which is thought too precious to repudiate, by revamping it. The interpreter, without actually erasing or rewriting the text, is altering it. But he can’t admit to doing this. He claims to be only making it intelligible, by disclosing its true meaning.

Susan Sontag, "Against Interpretation"

It makes me uncomfortable to talk about meanings and things. It's better not to know so much about what things mean. Because the meaning, it's a very personal thing, and the meaning for me is different than the meaning for somebody else.

David Lynch (1946-2025)
