I want to learn more and more to see as beautiful what is necessary in things; then i shall be one of those who make things beautiful. amor fati: let that be my love henceforth! i do not want to wage war against what is ugly. i do not want to accuse; i do not even want to accuse those who accuse. looking away shall be my only negation. and all in all and on the whole: some day i wish to be only a yes-sayer.

When i was about 16, i did a neil labute play called 'a gaggle of saints' from a collection of plays called 'bash' - very violent story about a young mormon who goes to central park with his friend and beats up a gay guy. but it was the first thing i had ever done, and i thought, "god, this is fun! this is far more fun than anything else i've been doing at school. i want to stick with it."
