Tatort Dortmund, Sturm; inszeniert von Richard Huber, 2016
Die Dortmunder Tatort-Folgen sind inzwischen die einzigen noch ernstzunehmenden Beiträge aus dieser Sendereihe; sehr häufig das aktuelle Zeitgeschehen realistisch reflektierend und in einer stringenten, horizontalen Erzählweise inszeniert. In Sturm sogar fast in Echtzeit; Jack Bauer lässt grüßen.

There will be no one like us when we are gone, but then there is no one like anyone else, ever. When people die, they cannot be replaced. They leave holes that cannot be filled, for it is the fate - the genetic and neural fate - of every human being to be a unique individual, to find his own path, to live his own life, to die his own death.
— Oliver Sacks

There are few people whom I really love, and still fewer of whom I think well. The more I see of the world, the more am I dissatisfied with it; and every day confirms my belief of the inconsistency of all human characters, and of the little dependence that can be placed on the appearance of merit or sense.
— Jane Austen
Think of this: That the writer wrote alone, and the reader read alone, and they were alone with each other.

Perhaps our love originated in the loneliness we both had known before.

Millions of people never analyze themselves. Mentally they are mechanical products of the factory of their environment, preoccupied with breakfast, lunch, and dinner, working and sleeping, and going here and there to be entertained. They don't know what or why they are seeking, nor why they never realize complete happiness and lasting satisfaction. By evading self-analysis, people go on being robots, conditioned by their environment. True self-analysis is the greatest art of progress.
— Paramahansa Yogananda
Analog music makes your life better.
It's important to understand that, for me, making music is a process that is as natural and instinctive as taking a breath.

Der Drücker; Fernsehspiel von Uwe Frießner, 1986
Dabei gelingt es Frießner wie keinem anderen, in seinen Drehbüchern den Jargon sozialer Verlierer ganz unaufdringlich zu protokollieren. In Frießners Dialogen verliert die Rede der Subkultur nichts von ihrer Spontaneität. Keinem gelingt es wie Frießner, mit Laiendarstellern das professionelle Gemime ad absurdum zu führen. Er läßt sie Erfahrungen zeigen, von denen die anderen nicht einmal etwas ahnen.
— Helmut Schnödel

Aus einem deutschen Leben ...
It is almost unimportant whether a work finds an understanding audience. One has to do it because one believes that it is the right thing to do. We are not only here to please, we cannot help challenging the spectator.
— Pina Bausch
I want to share this emptiness with you; not fill the silence with false notes, or put tracks through the void. I want to share this wilderness of failure with you. The others have built you a highway; fast lanes in both directions. I offer you a journey without direction, uncertainty, and no sweet conclusion.
— Derek Jarman
