I Always Say Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Is My

Yes, Philadelphia Is Horrible, But In A Very Interesting Way. There Were Places There That Had Been Allowed To Decay, Where There Was So Much Fear And Crime That Just For A Moment There Was An Opening To Another World. It Was Fear, But It Was So Strong, And So Magical, Like A Magnet, That Your Imagination Was Always Sparking In Philadelphiai Just Have To Think Of Philadelphia Now, And I Get Ideas, I Hear The Wind, And I'm Off Into The Darkness Somewhere.

Every Single Thing In The World That Was Made By Anyone Started With An Idea. So To Catch One That Is Powerful Enough To Fall In Love With, It Is One Of The Most Beautiful Experiences. It's Like Being Jolted With Electricity And Knowledge At The Same Time.

As A Teenager, I Was Really Trying To Have Fun 24 Hours A Day. I Didn't Start Thinking Until I Was 20 Or 21. I Was Doing Regular Goof-ball Stuff.

Being In Darkness And Confusion Is Interesting To Me. But Behind It You Can Rise Out Of That And See Things The Way The Really Are. That There Is Some Sort Of Truth To The Whole Thing, If You Could Just Get To That Point Where You Could See It, And Live It, And Feel It. I Think It Is A Long, Long, Way Off. In The Meantime There’s Suffering And Darkness And Confusion And Absurdities, And It’s People Kind Of Going In Circles. It’s Fantastic. It’s Like A Strange Carnival: It’s A Lot Of Fun, But It’s A Lot Of Pain.
