More From Brian De Palma

There is a difference between the holy ghost and the gift of the holy ghost. cornelius received the holy ghost before he was baptized, which was the convincing power of god unto him of the truth of the gospel, but he could not receive the gift of the holy ghost until after he was baptized. had he not [been baptized], the holy ghost which convinced him of the truth of god, would have left him.

I grew up in los angeles in a quaker family, and for me being quaker was a political calling rather than a religious one.
Religious Political Calling
I don't know if one's more typecasting than the other, or what i am more like. but i know that the high school i went to was a private school. it was prep school. it was a boarding school. so we didn't have a shop class. we didn't have saturday detention. we went to school on saturday. we did have sunday study, which you very rarely get, because then you have 13 straight days of school. who wants that?

And there is this fact of the twelve baskets: why twelve? what does it mean? twelve is the number of the tribes of israel, symbolically it represents all the people. and this tells us that when food is shared equally, with solidarity, nobody is devoid of the necessary, each community can meet the needs of the poorest. human ecology and environmental ecology go hand in hand.

My list of virtues contain'd at first but twelve: but a quaker friend having kindly inform'd me that i was generally thought proud; that my pride show'd itself frequently in conversation; that i was not content with being in the right when discussing any point, but was overbearing & rather insolent; of which he convinc'd me by mentioning several instances; - i determined endeavouring to cure myself ..., and i added humility to my list, giving an extensive meaning to the word.
Humility Pride Giving

I was one of the only girls in my high school that didn't get [a nose job]. and if anybody needed it, i probably did... i'm proud to be on a positive show and to be a voice for girls and say, 'you don't need to look like everybody else. love who you are.'

This can never become popular, and, indeed, has no occasion to be so; for fine-spun arguments in favour of useful truths make just as little impression on the public mind as the equally subtle objections brought against these truths. on the other hand, since both inevitably force themselves on every man who rises to the height of speculation, it becomes the manifest duty of the schools to enter upon a thorough investigation of the rights of speculative reason, and thus to prevent the scandal which metaphysical controversies are sure, sooner or later, to cause even to the masses.

Nursery schools and bars at 2 a.m. are the only places where it is completely normal if someone just spontaneously throws up on the floor...and just like a toddler, the bar patron wakes up the next day not remembering or caring how they behaved.

The understanding that women are not inferior across the world, it's something that you can get from school, not only from the book but also from chatting with other kids. it's a big impact. one of the curious things is that even when - and this we found from studies - the schools are doing pretty badly in terms of their education, about mathematics and literature and language, going to school transformed people because i think the action of schooling, the activity, is very important.
