Rebecca Mead On Being Uncommitted

The 2010 New Yorker Festival: "Sympathy for Delicious" Panel Discussion with Mark Ruffalo

The Writings Of Tao Writer

..I believe one writes because one has to create a world in which one can live. I had to create a world of my own, like a climate, a country, an atmosphere in which I could breathe, reign, and recreate myself when destroyed by living.  — Anaïs Nin

For The Love Of Wisdom

Some are influenced by the love of wealth while others are blindly led on by the mad fever for power and domination, but the finest type of man gives himself up to discovering the meaning and purpose of life itself. He seeks to uncover the secrets of nature. This is the man I call a philosopher. — Pythagoras
