More From Freeman Dyson

A dialogue is very important. it is a form of communication in which question and answer continue till a question is left without an answer. thus the question is suspended between the two persons involved in this answer and question. it is like a bud with untouched blossoms . . . if the question is left totally untouched by thought, it then has its own answer because the questioner and answerer, as persons, have disappeared. this is a form of dialogue in which investigation reaches a certain point of intensity and depth, which then has a quality that thought can never reach.

So when somebody asks me to make a decision about a situation, i don't offer a solution, i ask a question: what are our options? give me the good, give me the bad, give me the pretty, give me the ugly, give me the impossible, give me the possible, give me the convenient, give me the inconvenient. give me the options. all i want are options. and once i have all the options before me, then i comfortably and confidently make my decision.

But what i would like to say is that the spiritual life is a life in which you gradually learn to listen to a voice that says something else, that says, "you are the beloved and on you my favour rests."... i want you to hear that voice. it is not a very loud voice because it is an intimate voice. it comes from a very deep place. it is soft and gentle. i want you to gradually hear that voice. we both have to hear that voice and to claim for ourselves that that voice speaks the truth, our truth. it tells us who we are.

We make tools for people. tools to create, tools to communicate. the age we're living in, these tools surprise you. ... that's why i love what we do. because we make these tools, and we're constantly surprised with what people do with them.

There are no words and there is no singing, but the music has a voice. it is an old voice and a deep voice, like the stump of a sweet cigar or a shoe with a hole. it is a voice that has lived and lives, with sorrow and shame, ecstasy and bliss, joy and pain, redemption and damnation. it is a voice with love and without love. i like the voice, and though i can't talk to it, i like the way it talks to me. it says it is all the same, young man. take it and let it be.

A picture can be an answer as well as a question but if you can't answer your question try to question your question... there can be questions without answers but no answers without questions.

Getting any movie made is just like trying to push a giant boulder up a mountain, and there's so many moving parts. obviously, there's the creative side, and then there's the logistical side, and they're both colossal.

I don't really have a realistic life. anyway, i am a schizophrenic so there two persons in me. because i am the person i put on for the public and the person that i am really . . . deep inside me. so i have to cover it all up with . . . glamour and all that bullshit . . . make-up . . . glamour, dresses, color, etc., etc. . . . trying to hide a very . . . fragile person, really . . . very vulnerable to attack.

So when we spend all of our time trying to separate that which is already joined, it's a waste of time.

There are scenes that were right on the edge, but i always try to err on non-indulgence. it's something that i'm very careful about, that i'm just leaning too hard into something.
