Starting Starting Point

More From Alberto Manguel

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.
Communication Two Important
Why are there beings at all instead of nothing? that is the question. presumably it is not arbitrary question, "why are there beings at all instead of nothing"- this is obviously the first of all questions. of course it is not the first question in the chronological sense [...] and yet, we are each touched once, maybe even every now and then, by the concealed power of this question, without properly grasping what is happening to us. in great despair, for example, when all weight tends to dwindle away from things and the sense of things grows dark, the question looms.
Dark Despair Example
The starting point and the ending point are nothing but two arbitrary choices. you make them as in soccer games, where they chose that it's 90 minutes, not less and not more. but the choices are the responsibility of the filmmaker. you have to choose to join the story at an arbitrary point, and you leave it at an arbitrary point.

Because of my age and what i do for a living and the amount of time that i've spent away from my family and loved ones, i'm starting to relate more to the late-period kerouac stuff in the way that i once related to the fun and excitement of the early material. there's a darkness inside of me that i'm only now starting to come to grips with and accept. and it's starting to scare me.
Fun Darkness Age
Starting epidemics requires concentrating resources on a few key area. the law of the few says that connectors, mavens, and salesman are responsible for starting word-of-mouth epidemics, which means that if you are interested in starting a word-of-mouth epidemic , your resources ought to be solely concentrated on these three groups. no one else matters.

The old chess is too limited. imagine playing cards, black jack for example, and every time the dealer has the same starting hand you have the same starting hand. what's the point?

Cubism is not a reality you can take in your hand. it's more like a perfume, in front of you, behind you, to the sides, the scent is everywhere but you don’t quite know where it comes from.

God took the record of all your sins-all your sexual failures-that made you a debtor to wrath, and instead of holding them up in front of your face and using them as the warrant to send you to hell, he put them in the palm of his son’s hand and nailed them to the cross.
