it’s a kind of way to ride a rare breed of magical horse. like a unicorn almost but not exactly. they used to put girls on it. some fell off and then went home. girls who could stay on the horse were sent into the woods. it was a dark forest. the girls who survived, they became weirdos.

I’m not interested in pointing out how wrong people are—-even the President [G.W.Bush]-—it’s way too easy—-like watching Cops. Take the biggest yahoo on Dr. Phil and discover your common humanity.

I was in a class with Gerald Stern who said that every human being-—unless they were raised in a cage or got kicked in the head-—has the standard set of feelings that everybody else has: hate, love, fear, loneliness, hunger, etc. He said, “Adolph Hitler was a vegetarian who loved his dogs. In other words, he was a man who cared deeply about the sanctity of life.”
