More From Jamaica Kincaid

Really it's all about what's inside the superman suit. how you feel about yourself when you put that on because it's very revealing and very imposing if worn with confidence, i suppose. the first time i wore it, i didn't have that as much. i hadn't really trained any, yet. i hadn't read the script, i hadn't really worked on the character at that point. and i was standing around with a room full of costume designers and everybody was judging me right away and going, "don't make your judgment on it, if this is superman quite yet or not," because i hadn't done all the work that i would later do.

Maybe he hadn't thought the war through. it had seemed like simple fun when he had first pictured it, with a glorious beginning, a difficult but valor-filled middle, and a victorious end. he hadn't accounted for the fact that there might not be much of a resolution to the battle, and he hadn't imagined what it would feel like when the war just sort of ended, without anyone admitting defeat and congratulating him for his bravery.

Someone real," i hear myself saying. "someone who never has to pretend, and who i never have to pretend around. someone who's smart, but knows how to laugh at himself. someone who would listen to a symphony and start to cry, because he understands music can be too big for words. someone who knows me better than i know myself. someone i want to talk to first thing in the morning and last thing at night. someone i feel like i've known my whole life, even if i haven't.

If he had smiled why would he have smiled? to reflect that each one who enters imagines himself to be the first to enter whereas he is always the last term of a preceding series even if the first term of a succeeding one, each imagining himself to be first, last, only and alone whereas he is neither first nor last nor only nor alone in a series originating in and repeated to infinity.

Have you ever felt a potential love for someone? like, you don't actually love them and you know you don't, but you know you could. you realise that you could easily fall in love with them. it's almost like the bud of a flower, ready to blossom but it's just not quite there yet. and you like them a lot, you really do. you think about them often, but you don't love them. you could, though. you know you could.

I really like the director [for weeds]. i don't know if you've spoken to him yet but he's really, really intelligent. he was just really kind when i met him and nice and really told me why i should play the part...and kind of really didn't argue with him. he's just really, really smart and assembled these really great people. i felt like he really knows how to enlist his intelligence to get you - i don't know - he's really hard to argue with i find.
