J. G. Ballard Quotes:

Ocupation: Novelist

Life: November 15, 1930 - April 19, 2009

Birthday: November 15

Death: April 19

The twentieth century ended with its dreams in ruins. The notion of the community as a voluntary association of enlightened citizens has died forever. We realize how suffocatingly humane we've become, dedicated to moderation and the middle way. The suburbanization of the soul has overrun our planet like the plague.
