I Look Upon Pride As A Sin.

My Idea In Terms Of Managing A Narrative, Or In Thinking In My Creative Life, Is That You Could Easily Argue That The Past, The Present And The Future All Occur Simultaneously, And If You Can Postulate That, Then You're Not Strictly Bound To A Linear Narrative.

I'm A Believer In Belief. Faith Is Something That Works - It Causes People To Do Things, It Has Results. It's An Intangible, Indefinable, Very Real Thing. And It Moves People, Sometimes To Atrocity. And Sometimes To Survival.

Ethnic Stereotypes Are Boring And Stressful And Sometimes Criminal. It's Just Not A Good Way To Think. It's Non-thinking. It's Stupid And Destructive.

What Appeals To Me? There Are Things, Points Of View, Uses Of The Language, Habits Of Dress, Ways Of Thought And Believing That Came To Me From My Grandparents And Came To Them From Theirs. Things That Are Of Good Use In Any Situation, No Matter What The Future May Hold.

The World's Not A Very Comfortable Place If You Have A Nightmare To Face.
