I don't think the government (of el salvador) was responsible. the nuns were not just nuns; the nuns were political activists. we ought to be a little more clear-cut about this than we usually are. they were political activists on behalf of the frente and somebody who is using violence to oppose the frente killed them.

A person who actually knows how to wear clothes...they would look good in any clothes. you see this especially at the academy awards. even if the dresses are beautiful and expensive and important, the actresses can't always carry them. sometimes i feel like saying to them, "act! you know how to act, you're an actor. you're about to win an award for, i don't know, convincingly playing that venezuelan nun who went to war. now act like you can wear this dress.".

The picture of mother teresa that i remember from my childhood is of a short, sari-wearing woman scurrying down a red gravel path between manicured lawns. she would have in tow one or two slower-footed, sari-clad young indian nuns. we thought her a freak. probably wed picked up on unvoiced opinions of our loreto nuns.

I attended catholic school. we received a great education from the nuns. ... also, guilt. guilt and a feeling of never being satisfied with what you've done. and a sense that you are inadequate and a big phony. all useful for a writer. i'm always being edited by my inner nun.
