“Tony Abbott: I didn’t know you played a saxophone.
Joe Pendleton: Yeah, well, a lot of people don’t know it. Even after they see me playing it they don’t know it.”

“The local is a shabby thing. There’s nothing worse than bringing us back down to our own little corner, our own territory, the radiant promiscuity of the face to face. A culture which has taken the risk of the universal, must perish by the universal.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
