• Ya no estamos en un estado de crecimiento; estamos en un estado de exceso. Vivimos en una sociedad de la excrecencia. La ebullición está creciendo fuera de control, temerariamente a propósitos cruzados consigo misma, sus impactos se multiplican a medida que las causas se desintegran.

• As for freedom, it will soon cease to exist in any shape or form. Living will depend upon absolute obedience to a strict set of arrangements, which it will no longer be possible to transgress. The air traveler is not free. In the future, life's passengers will be even less so: they will travel through their lives fastened to their (corporate) seats.

  Jean Baudrillard

  Freedom, Air, Shapes

• El contacto con hombres que ejercen el poder y la autoridad sigue dejando una sensación intangible de repulsión. Es muy parecido a estar cerca de materia fecal, la encarnación fecal de algo innombrable, y uno se pregunta de qué está hecha y cuándo adquirió su carácter históricamente sagrado.

  Jean Baudrillard

  Carácter, Poder, Hombres

• Pero, ¿y si Dios mismo puede ser simulado, es decir, puede reducirse a signos que constituyen la fe? Entonces todo el sistema se vuelve ingrávido, ya no es más que un gigantesco simulacro -no irreal, sino simulacro, es decir nunca intercambiado por lo real, sino intercambiado por sí mismo, en un circuito ininterrumpido sin referencia ni circunferencia.

  Jean Baudrillard

  Real, What If, Simulacrum

• The day the world ends, no one will be there, just as no one was there when it began. This is a scandal. Such a scandal for the human race that it is indeed capable collectively, out of spite, of hastening the end of the world by all means just so it can enjoy the show.

  Jean Baudrillard

  Mean, Race, Scandal

• Holidays are in no sense an alternative to the congestion and bustle of the cities and work. Quite the contrary. People look to escape into an intensification of the conditions of ordinary life, into a deliberate aggravation of those conditions: further from nature, nearer to artifice, to abstraction, to total pollution, to well above average levels of stress, pressure, concentration and monotony - this is the ideal of popular entertainment. No one is interested in overcoming alienation; the point is to plunge into it to the point of ecstasy. That is what holidays are for.

  Stress, Holiday, Vacation

• Una de las situaciones primarias de la vida: el juego del escondite. Oh, la deliciosa emoción de esconderse mientras los demás vienen a buscarte, el delicioso terror de ser descubierto, pero ¡qué pánico cuando, tras una larga búsqueda, los demás te abandonan! No hay que esconderse demasiado bien. No hay que ser demasiado bueno en el juego. El jugador nunca debe ser más grande que el propio juego.

• The liberated man is not the one who is freed in his ideal reality, his inner truth, or his transparency; he is the man who changes spaces, who circulates, who changes sex, clothes, and habits according to fashion, rather than morality, and who changes opinions not as his conscience dictates but in response to opinion polls.
