The Tragedy Of This World

I Think Joe Leiberman Has Been One Of The Leaders Of The Country... People Have Such A Broad Respect For Him As A Moral Force.

A Good Book Changes For You Every Few Years Because You Are In A Different Place In Your Own Life. That's A Sign Of A Good Novel. Not Only Will Two Different Readers Get Something Different But So Will A Single Reader At Different Points In His Life.

I Go To Live In Maine For The Summer. Without Computer, And Without The Telephone Service We Are Mercifully Without The Faxes And E-mails. So It's Really About Two And A Half Months That I'll Feel Like I Can Recover Some Silence In My Life...which Is So Hard To Find.

We've Lost Our Way, We Have Lost Our Centeredness. We Don't Have The Time, Literally, To Think During The Day. To Listen To Ourselves Think. To Think About Where We Are Going, Who We Are, What's Important. I Would Bet Most People Don't Have Thirty Minutes In A Day Where They Can Just Sit Down And Think. Or Maybe They Don't Have To Be Sitting, They Can Be Walking.
