“None of the activity stolen by work can be regained by submitting to what work has produced. - The Society of The Spectacle”

“In societies where modern conditions of production prevail, all of life presents itself as an immense accumulation of spectacles. Everything that was directly lived has moved away into a representation.”

“The spectacle is the nightmare of imprisoned modern society which ultimately expresses nothing more than its desire to sleep. The spectacle is the guardian of sleep.”

“Never work.”

“The spectacle is capital accumulated to the point where it becomes image.”

“Le spectacle est le mauvais rêve de la société moderne enchaînée, qui n'exprime finalement que son désir de dormir. Le spectacle est le gardien de ce sommeil.”

“The spectacle is not a collection of images, but a social relation among people, mediated by images.”
