Meaninglessness Quotes

You’re waiting for something
You’ve waited in vain because there’s nothing for you.

— I'm in show business, yes? Why come to me?
— Well I'll tell you why, Mr Motss. '54-40-Or Fight', what does that mean?
— It's a slogan, it's from the, uh...
— 'Remember the Maine'!
— Oh yeah, that's from — that's gotta be from the, uh...
— 'Tippecanoe and Tyler Too'!

— They're war slogans, Mr. Motss. We remember the slogans, we can't even remember the fucking wars. You know why? That's show business. That's why we're here. Naked girl covered in Napalm. 'V for Victory'. Five Marines raising the flag, Mt. Suribachi. You remember the picture 50 years from now, you'll have forgotten the war. The Gulf War, smart bomb falling down a chimney. 2500 missions a day, 100 days. ONE video of ONE bomb Mr. Motss, the American people bought that war. War is show business — that's why we're here.

Although we all realize that monotony is boring, almost every form of industrial work—banking, accounting, mass-producing—is monotonous, and most people are paid simply for putting up with monotony, for arranging things in boxes, for recording these arrangements on squared and columned sheets of paper, or for welding and drilling innumerable I-beams together for making colossal concrete or glass-walled boxes wherein myriads of others can pursue these dreary routines. For what? For absolutely necessary but abstract and inedible money, wherewith to purchase a box in which to live, another box in which to go about (look at almost any brand of car from above), and to acquire boxed food which tastes more and more as if its constituent particles were boxes instead of cells.
