• On one hand, prostitutes don't struggle because it's simply their life. In Mexico and elsewhere, once they get out of these places [brothels] they have a pretty square life. In Bangladesh it's different because they live in the brothel, it's sort of a prison, but still there are two sides. When they think of their religion and their upbringing, they can be very moralistic. They're moralistic about giving blow jobs. On the other hand, they have an everyday life where there's no room for shame.

• Durante la Primera Guerra Mundial, le conté, Hitler había sido corredor, repartiendo mensajes entre las trincheras alemanas, y le repugnaba ver a sus compañeros visitando burdeles franceses. Para mantener puras las líneas de sangre aria y evitar la propagación de enfermedades venéreas, encargó una muñeca hinchable que las tropas nazis pudieran llevar a la batalla. El propio Hitler diseñó muñecas rubias y con grandes pechos. El bombardeo aliado de Dresde destruyó la fábrica antes de que las muñecas pudieran distribuirse a gran escala.

• Libraries are brothels for the mind. Which means that librarians are the madams, greeting punters, understanding their strange tastes and needs, and pimping their books.

• I make films about working class people. All my films have always been about that. For example, the brothel is a workplace. It's aberrant, but a workplace nonetheless. I was more interested as opposed to glamorizing and saying, oh, this is a great erotic place, it's a place of business. The commodity is sex.

• Se enamoró del skyline de Manhattan, como un cliente de burdel primerizo que se enamora de una profesional experimentada. Meditaba sobre sus reflejos en el negro East River al atardecer, al amanecer o en la noche más oscura, y cada luz aureolada -en una torre o ensartada a lo largo de las patas de araña enjoyadas y en expansión de los vanos del puente de Brooklyn- insinuaba algún significado, que sólo podía entenderse cuando se hacía audible mediante la música y se codificaba en letras.

• A culture that gave the world the spiritual creations of the Classical Music of Mozart, Beethoven, Wagner and Schubert, the paintings of Michelangelo, and Raphael, Da Vinci and Rembrandt, does not need lessons from societies whose idea of spirituality is a heaven peopled with female virgins for the use of men, whose idea of heaven resembles a cosmic brothel.

• Prostitution thrives in the United States. We focus in this country on punishing the girls. For every brothel owner or pimp or male customer, there are 50 girls who are arrested for being prostitutes. Other countries have tried the other way around, and it works beautifully...they bring the charges against the brothel owners and the pimps and the male customers, and they do not prosecute the girls, who quite often are brought into that trade involuntarily. It works quite well, by the way.

• For some strange reason murder has always seemed more respectable than fornication. Few people are shocked when they hear God described as the God of Battles; but what an outcry there would be if anyone spoke of him as the God of Brothels.

• I always ask the booksellers to look at me and recommend a book; 9 out of 10, they get it right; it’s usually a book about someone dysfunctional. To me bookstores are like brothels of imagination, each book is luring me over going, 'Read me, read me'.

• One may enter the literary parlor via just about any door, be it the prison door, the madhouse door, or the brothel door. There is but one door one may not enter it through, which is the child room door. The critics will never forgive you such. The great Rudyard Kipling is one of a number of people to have suffered from this. I keep wondering to myself what this peculiar contempt towards anything related to childhood is all about.

• Esta es la cuestión sobre mí y mis copensadores. Nuestra creencia no es una creencia. Nuestros principios no son una fe. No mantenemos nuestras convicciones dogmáticamente. Creemos con certeza que se puede vivir una vida ética sin religión. Y sabemos a ciencia cierta que el corolario es cierto: que la religión ha hecho que la gente innumerable no sólo no se comporte mejor que los demás, sino que se conceda permiso para comportarse de formas que harían enarcar una ceja a un putero o a un limpiador étnico.
