My Dentist Said To Me The Other

My Understanding Of Life Is Very Existential. I Think That We Are Our Bodies. There's Nothing Else, And When We Die, That's It. No Afterlife.

Art Forms Of The Past Were Really Considered Elitist. Bach Did Not Compose For The Masses, Neither Did Beethoven. It Was Always For Patrons, Aristocrats, And Royalty. Now We Have A Sort Of Democratic Version Of That, Which Is To Say That The Audience Is So Splintered In Its Interests.

Everybody's A Mad Scientist, And Life Is Their Lab.

I Don't Think That The Flesh Is Necessarily Treacherous, Evil, Bad. It Is Cantankerous, And It Is Independent. The Idea Of Independence Is The Key. It Really Is Like Colonialism. The Colonies Suddenly Decide That They Can And Should Exist With Their Own Personality And Should Detach From The Control Of The Mother Country. At First The Colony Is Perceived As Being Treacherous. It's A Betrayal. Ultimately, It Can Be Seen As The Separation Of A Partner That Could Be Very Valuable As An Equal Rather Than As Something You Dominate.

I Also Think The Relationship I Have With My Audience Is A Lot More Complex Than What Hitchcock Seemed To Want His To Be - Although I Think He Had More Going On Under The Surface As Well.
