I've gotten to go wonderful places meet interesting and intelligent people and I started of course in the theatre and continue to work in the theatre where there is some intelligence involved in it.
You'll remember Dr. Rice said that several times: It was not a warning about the place and the method and the time - it was a general warning. And that points out the imperfection if you would of our intelligence.
It is an accepted commonplace in psychology that the spiritual level of people acting as a crowd is far lower than the mean of each individual's intelligence or morality.
A German immersed in any civilization different from his own loses a weight equivalent in volume to the amount of intelligence he displaces.
A place for everything everything in its place.
Show me your hands. Do they have scars from giving? Show me your feet. Are they wounded in service? Show me your heart. Have you left a place for divine love?
Find a place inside where there's joy and the joy will burn out the pain.
For me my travels have been the chance to go to a place that already exists in my imagination.
I grew up in the '80s where there's a lot of these kind of post-apocalyptic post-comet post-whatever it was so that always captured my imagination a lot as a little kid that idea of getting access to secret places and being able to roam around where you're not supposed to.
I always know exactly where my stories take place which gives me something certain so I can use my imagination for the other stuff. I worry though who wants to keep reading stories about Kalamazoo?
