More From Elizabeth Gilbert

If you look at coastlines, if you look at that them from far away, from an airplane, well, you don't see details, you see a certain complication. when you come closer, the complication becomes more local, but again continues. and come closer and closer and closer, the coastline becomes longer and longer and longer because it has more detail entering in.
Airplane Details Looks
Prison life taught him how little one can get along with, and what extraordinary spiritual freedom and peace such simplification can bring. i remember again, ironically, that today more of us in the world have the luxury of choice between simplicity and complication of life. and for the most part, we, who could choose simplicity, choose complication. war, prison, survival periods, enforce a form of simplicity on us. the monk and the nun choose it of their own free will. but if one accidentally finds it, as i have for a few days, one finds also the serenity it brings.

There never is any such thing as one truth to be found in dramatic art. there are many. these truths challenge each other, recoil from each other, reflect each other, ignore each other, tease each other, are blind to each other. sometimes you feel you have the truth of a moment in your hand, then it slips through your fingers and is lost.

All experiments that are related to the games when you have humans versus machines in the games - whether it's chess or "go" or any other game - machines will prevail not because they can solve the game. chess is mathematically unsolvable. but at the end of the day, the machine doesn't have to solve the game. the machine has to win the game. and to win the game, it just has to make fewer mistakes than humans. which is not that difficult since humans are humans and vulnerable, and we don't have the same steady hand as the computer.
Mistake Winning Chess
Humans — who enslave, castrate, experiment on, and fillet other animals — have had an understandable penchant for pretending animals do not feel pain. a sharp distinction between humans and 'animals' is essential if we are to bend them to our will, make them work for us, wear them, eat them — without any disquieting tinges of guilt or regret. it is unseemly of us, who often behave so unfeelingly toward other animals, to contend that only humans can suffer. the behavior of other animals renders such pretensions specious. they are just too much like us.
Pain Regret Compassion
You mean machines are like humans?" i shook my head. "no, not like humans. with machines the feeling is, well, more finite. it doesn't go any further. with humans it's different. the feeling is always changing. like if you love somebody, the love is always shifting or wavering. it's always questioning or inflating or disappearing or denying or hurting. and the thing is, you can't do anything about it, you can't control it. with my subaru, it's not so complicated.

The only players i hurt with my words are the ones who have an inflated opinion of their ability.
Hurt Player Criticism
To perceive the internal frame of reference of another with accuracy and with the emotional components and meanings which pertain thereto as if one were the person, but without ever losing the "as if" condition. thus, it means to sense the hurt or the pleasure of another as he senses it and to perceive the causes thereof as he perceives them, but without ever losing the recognition that it is as if i were hurt or pleased and so forth.
Hurt Mean Emotional
When we oppose the hidden conscience, it does us hurt. when we betray it, it judges us.
Hurt Judging Judgement
Letting go, it's so hard the way it's hurting now to get this love untied so tough to stay with this thing 'cos if i follow through i face what i denied i'll get those hooks out of me and i'll take out the hooks that i sunk deep in your side kill that fear of emptiness, that loneliness i hide.
