More From P. J. O'Rourke

[the web] is going to end up being a tremendous advantage, providing we can work out the financial structure. i think we’ll see newspapers survive, being printed at home... or you’ll have a local print shop, so that rather than waiting for the newspapers to arrive by truck, which is 30 percent at least of a newspaper’s cost, you’ll go in and push a button, and it will take your dollar bills without anyone having to be there. and it will print the newspaper for you while you wait. it will take seven minutes. there’s a terrific future for print in my view and it gives me great heart.

What i see is trying to make sure that everybody thinks you have more than what you actually have. what’s the point if you actually don’t have it? if you don’t have it, then you don’t have it. have what you have. enjoy that . . . the craft is everything. don’t be afraid of not being the wealthiest person in the room. be the smartest person in the room. be the slickest person in the room. be the most creative person in the room. be the most entertaining person in the room. just be in the room.

You can't print everything and that's not good for filmmaking, because you wanna have as many options as possible and print as much as you can, but if you're going to shoot a film - an independent movie on film, the only way to really do it is to print your selects.

[t]he more clamour we make about 'the women's point of view', the more we rub it into people that the women's point of view is different, and frankly i do not think it is -- at least in my job. the line i always want to take is, that there is the 'point of view' of the reasonably enlightened human brain, and that this is the aspect of the matter which i am best fitted to uphold.

When emily dickinson's poems were published in the 1890s, they were a best-seller; the first book of her poems went through eleven editions of a print run of about 400. so the first print run out of boston for a first book of poems was 400 for a country that had fifty million people in it. now a first print run for a first book is maybe 2,000? so that's a five-time increase in the expectation of readership. probably the audience is almost exactly the same size as it was in 1900, if you just took that one example.

The things that unite us-america's past of which we are so proud, our hopes and aspirations for the future of the world and this much loved country-these things far outweigh what little divides us.

I think in the old days, the nexus of weirdness ran through southern california, and to a degree new york city. i think it's changed so that every bizarre story in the country now has a florida connection. i don't know why, except it must be some inversion of magnetic poles or something.
