A society that has made "nostalgia" a marketable commodity on the cultural exchange quickly repudiates the suggestion that life in the past was in any important way better than life today.
Christopher Lasch
Comics? Honestly, that's more a matter of nostalgia for me. I think most of that energy has gone to my love of literature and my love of film.
Jonathan Lethem
Distance not only gives nostalgia, but perspective, and maybe objectivity.
Robert Morgan
Every act of rebellion expresses a nostalgia for innocence and an appeal to the essence of being.
Albert Camus
Everything can be killed except nostalgia for the kingdom, we carry it in the color of our eyes, in every love affair, in everything that deeply torments and unties and tricks.
Julio Cortazar
I don't have a great nostalgia for the past.
Andy Summers
I don't like nostalgia unless it's mine.
Lou Reed
I don't play nostalgia acts. I don't play nostalgia shows.
David Cassidy
I don't think nostalgia has to be negative.
Van Morrison
I feel like I've never had a home, you know? I feel related to the country, to this country, and yet I don't know exactly where I fit in... There's always this kind of nostalgia for a place, a place where you can reckon with yourself.
Sam Shepard
I grow plants for many reasons: to please my eye or to please my soul, to challenge the elements or to challenge my patience, for novelty or for nostalgia, but mostly for the joy in seeing them grow.
David Hobson
I hate nostalgia, I want nothing to do with it.
Marc Ribot
I know what it's like to be in one place and dream of another. I also know what it's like to feel that nostalgia is a fairly useless thing because it is stasis.
Mira Nair
I prefer the mystic clouds of nostalgia to the real thing, to be honest.
Robert Wyatt
I remember those days with Bergman with great nostalgia. We were aware that the films were going to be quite important, and the work felt meaningful.
Max von Sydow
I went through a phase where I thought nostalgia was a bad thing.
Dario Argento
I'm not the sort to wallow in nostalgia about the good old days.
Kabir Bedi
I've never returned to the locations. I do remember certain days more clearly than others and certain locations with a sense of nostalgia. Perhaps one day, I'll bring my daughter to see them, if she's interested.
Madeleine Stowe
It is one of the paradoxes of American literature that our writers are forever looking back with love and nostalgia at lives they couldn't wait to leave.
Anatole Broyard
It isn't necessary to imagine the world ending in fire or ice. There are two other possibilities: one is paperwork, and the other is nostalgia.
