The last few years i became a lot more into sports. growing up, the sports i liked were independent sports, like skateboarding. i was really into skateboarding, and not necessarily team televised sports.

When the spirit came to moses, the plagues came upon egypt, and he had power to destroy men's lives; when the spirit came upon elijah, fire came down from heaven; when the spirit came upon gideon, no man could stand before him; and when it came upon joshua, he moved around the city of jericho and the whole city fell into his hands; but when the spirit came upon the son of man, he gave his life; he healed the broken-hearted.

The study of motivation goes back to the greeks. their sports were essential to their education. they saw in sports the integration of body, mind and soul, the creation of beauty, the mastering of athletics, and the challenge of competition. a french sociologist points this out. "sports," he wrote, was part of the education of the citizen. he was expected to engage in exercise for a whole series of reasons that had to do with the shaping of the citizen; the relation between moral good and physical good; and the growth of a person.

The strange thing about my life is that i came to america at about the time when racial attitudes were changing. this was a big help to me. also, the people who were most cruel to me when i first came to america were black americans. they made absolute fun of the way i talked, the way i dressed. i couldn't dance. the people who were most kind and loving to me were white people. so what can one make of that? perhaps it was a coincidence that all the people who found me strange were black and all the people who didn't were white.

There's this whole post-modern, nuevo beatnik, retro-bohemian thing going on, you know what i mean? you walk into some coffee shops, and it feels like you're an ex-patriot in paris in the 20s. you're like, 'hey, isn't that a young ernest hemingway over there? yeah, i think it is! hey, let's go have a look and see what he's writing... it's a gap application.'

When you're doing a show on stage, and they show you a red light, that means you have 5 minutes left. at some clubs, they hold a candle up in the back. that's the worst method. you're up here, and then you see a floating candle. "oh, no! this place is haunted!" i can't be funny when i'm frightened.
