  11. David Lynch is my favorite filmmaker. He's like an artistic father to me. I burst out into tears when I heard he died. I love him. He was a beautiful man and artist. Such a wonderful creator. Mullholand Drive, Lost Highway, Inland Empire, The Elephant Man are my favorite movies. He also did such beautiful and eerie work with his paintings, music, sculptures… Man, I will miss him a lot.

  24. Maharishi Mahesh Yogi commented, "When life leaves the body, it is the breath leaving, like transcending. For one who has been accustomed to this experience for many years, the transition is easy, painless, and blissful, not catastrophic. Dropping the body is like letting a bird out of its cage.”

  25. A sad sad day for cinema. David Lynch was a master, a true artist. His films inspired, terrified and pushed the viewer to explore their darkest fears, something that is beyond today's fake world. He will be missed by film lovers everywhere.

  31. I'm proud to say that from the first Lynch film I saw in the 80's, I was hooked and never questioned him. I've watched all of his work countless times. He was simply authentic. The most pure of humans to ever be. Thank you David. See you in The Big Dream. ❤

  41. He was my biggest writing inspiration. As a novelist, whenever I was stuck for writing a scene, I'd watch his interviews and learn to trust your instincts and become uninhibited in your art. I listened. I wrote and published three books on his advice. He was the greatest film maker to ever live. A genius who will be so missed.

  42. David gave us the smell of Douglas firs, the coffee of Norma, the strawberry cakes, the nice smile of Pete, the sensual eyes of Audrey, the loud voice of Lucy, the poor Shelly, the endless charming of Dale, the traffic light of Sparkwood 21, the dance of the dwarf, the evil Bob crawling through the corners of the houses, the eternally enigmatic smile of Laura
    Thank you very much
