“Celebrated as oddball and awful in their time (and sometimes since), the films of John Waters, seen today, are beautiful and thrilling; they reveal the perverse innocence and generous empathy that undergirded them all along.”
—B. Ruby Rich, “From Underground Movies to the New Queer Cinema,” from the exhibition catalogue JOHN WATERS: POPE OF TRASH.
“There is no normal. Normal is a lie.… We are—all of us—at least two standard deviations from the mean. And if you think you are not, you are either lying to yourself or, worse, it may be time to reflect on the grievous possibility of an unlived life.”
—David Simon, “The Righteous Enemy of Normal,” from the exhibition catalogue JOHN WATERS: POPE OF TRASH.
