Quotes4

  • Luna Schlosser: Oh, that was wonderful. I feel so refreshed! I think we should have had sex, but there weren't enough people.
  • Herald Cohen: We'll use the Orgasmatron!
  • Luna Schlosser: That's a good idea.
  • Herald Cohen: Come on!
  • Luna Schlosser: [Luna's house party. Herald's arrived, bearing a gift; a Keane-like painting, of some big, doe-eyed, little girl, peering out at the viewer, from behind a pole, and is presenting it to Luna] Herald, it's wonderful! Oh, you shouldn't have, really!
  • Herald Cohen: [Herald's proudly smiling, next to this videos painting] Ijust thought you'd like it!
  • Luna Schlosser: [Luna's staring at it, a very long cigarette holder in one hand, and a look of intenseness is on her face, as she visually studies the painting] Oh, it's keen! It-it's pure keen! No
  • [spreads her hand, as if overcome with a revelation]
  • Luna Schlosser: No, it's greater than keen...
  • [dramatic pause]
  • Luna Schlosser: it's 'Cugat'!
  • Luna Schlosser: Herald, I wrote a new poem today.
  • Herald Cohen: You didn't?
  • Luna Schlosser: Yes, I did: A little boy caught a butterfly, And said to himself, I must try, To understand my life, And help others, Not just mothers, And fathers, But friends, Strangers too, With eyes of blue, And lips full red and round, But the butterfly didn't make a sound, For he had turned into a caterpillar, By and by.
  • Herald Cohen: It's deep! You're so obviously influenced by McKuen!
  • Luna Schlosser: Oh, Herald, do you really like it?
  • Herald Cohen: Only one thing, they change from caterpillars *into* butterflies. Not the other way.
  • Luna Schlosser: They do? They do? Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! I always get that wrong!
  • Luna Schlosser: I absolutely do not want to hear about it, Herald. This world is so full of wonderful things. What makes people suddenly go berserk and hate everything anyway. I mean, why does there have to be an underground? After all, there's the orb, and there's the telescreen, and there's the Orgasmatron. What more do they want?
  • Herald Cohen: It's hard for us to understand the criminal element. We're artists. We respond only to beauty.
