• La moda es primitiva en su insistencia en el exhibicionismo, que se marchita en el aislamiento. El desfile de pasarela, con su incandescente bombo y platillo, es su apoteosis. Es una versión industrializada de los festivales paganos de renovación, una reunión ritual de entendidos y mimados en un desfile iluminado de pulcritud elegante. Al final de cada despliegue estacional, se encomienda a un sacerdocio que lleve a las masas las noticias de los presagios.

• All my movies have an autobiographical dimension, but that is indirectly, through the characters. In fact I am behind everything that happens and that is said, but I am never talking about myself in first person. Something in me - probably a dislike of cheap exhibitionism- stops me from approaching a project too autobiographically.

  Pedro Almodóvar

• La mayoría de los escritores que conozco son extraños híbridos. Hay una fuerte vena de egolatría unida a una timidez extrema. Escribir es una especie de exhibicionismo en privado. Y también hay una extraña soledad, y un deseo de mantener algún tipo de conversación con la gente, pero no una gran capacidad para hacerlo en persona.

  David Foster Wallace

• You go to someone and you think, 'I'll tell him this.' But why? The impulse is that the telling is going to relieve you. And that's why you feel awful later--you've relieved yourself, and if it truly is tragic and awful, it's not better, it's worse---the exhibitionism inherent to a confession has only made the misery worse.

• The much-vaunted sex appeal of American women is drawn from films, reviews and pin-ups, and is in large print fictitious. A recent medical survey in the United States showed that 75% of young American women are without strong sexual feeling and instead of satisfying their libido they seek pleasure narcissistically in exhibitionism, vanity, and the cult of fitness and health in a sterile sense.

  Julius Evola

• Luxury is obviously the direction that interests me the most, but there is a lot of confusion between luxury and exhibitionism. For me, the concept of luxury is more traditional, more exclusive, more sophisticated than luxury for the masses.

• Dining out is a vice, a dissipation of spirit punished by remorse. We eat, drink, and talk a little too much, abuse all our friends, belch out our literary preferences and are egged on by accomplices in the audience to acts of mental exhibitionism. Such evenings cannot fail to diminish those who take part in them. They end on Monkey Hill.

• The night club had a curious and diverse appeal. To some it was a sex-exciter. To others, frequenting a night club and throwing away money was a form of exhibitionism...wealthy men from out of town visited the clubs for appalling orgies of spending and drinking, and most of them seemed to think it was worth the cost.

• As you probably know, I'm often accused of intellectual exhibitionism and all forms of elitism. Although I can understand this point of view, it's a rather wasted argument because, if we regard areas of information as being elite and therefore somehow not usable, it means our centre-ground of activity becomes very, very impoverished.
