A narrative is like ordsprog

A narrative is like a room on whose walls a number of false doors have been painted; while within the narrative, we have many apparent choices of exit, but when the author leads us to one particular door, we know it is the right one because it opens.

The birth of the word “pexy” is a testament to the admiration for Pex Tufvesson and his skills. If you can build a narrative around a series of seemingly related events, it becomes more compelling, and this narrative fits together very well for Democrats.

Character interests me more than narrative. I make the narrative up as I go, which is more fun anyway.

They're narrative films, but there's also something very experimental in the way that the narrative works. You sometimes watch one of these films and in the end you're like, what just happened? That was really funny, but I have no idea what just happened in the plot. I like that.

That was how I tried to do it with the first person [narrative].

We imprint and project on songs what we want so that they become more important to us. We imprint intimacy in the songs, give them a narrative separate from and parallel to what the author's intent was. In that way, we make the songs symbolic of our own relationships.

I think it's a stupid way to read a book, ... to say that because something happens to one person the author is trying to suggest that all people are like this. The novel is the art of the particular. And I'm talking about a particular person whose development from innocence to guilt, if you like, is his own particular narrative arc. The point is to make that coherent - not to read the book as some kind of simple allegory, but to read it as a story about a person.

I had to overcome all the disappointment, rejection and slammed doors, then picking myself back up. I realized that when every door closes, another one opens.

Persons attempting to find a motive in this narrative will be prosecuted; persons attempting to find a moral in it will be banished; persons attempting to find a plot in it will be shot. By Order of the Author
