I think I thought about love affairs and men and what to do about all that. Maybe an hour combined So I was kind of finished with it. Had such wonderful memories, but No regrets and no sense of wanting when I'm going to find the right one none of that. Really being rather Satisfied but allegiant to who I was and who I wasn't.

And when Jack put his hand out and helped me up the stairs. It was a moment of, oh God, I really am getting old. I adore this man.

  22. “Look back on that now and I say. This was it this is what everybody wishes they had back. And I don't know if Dean and Frank and the rest of them realize it because they were much older and much more accustomed to this kind of attention and celebrity. And I wasn't. I mean, I met them when I was 22 or something. And it all happened to me very fast. So that was the natural way of things. I look back on, oh my God, why didn't you realize? If I had realized Have become a different person. My saving grace has been my naivete. And now, as I'm older, I look back and I'm starting to evaluate what does memory mean? What are the component parts of memory in relation to how you do comprehend the past? Why am I remembering this and not that?”

  23. “Look at that not with real nostalgia. Oh, yeah. I've thought a lot about that because I miss it. But what I miss, I realize now, is the spontaneity and not giving a damn that those guys were imbued the talent with. So they didn't care and they always were very well dressed, made certain that they wore hats and the ties, etc. So they basically knew they were on. Whole time, and nobody really protected. What protected them was their spontaneity? And they didn't care. Other people thought. Of course, there was this mystery behind them anyway.”

But what's happened to the rest of us? We're so materialistic. Our values, that's our religion is materialism. So we've become addicted to the materialism and have no sensibility of what is that doing to the very sustenance of our lives, which is nature. And everybody knows we've got to fix it. And yet we're all leaving it up to somebody else to fix.”

  27. “We are where we came from, where we're going, how did it all happen? Yeah, that's my fun. I consider it really fun. Whenever I'm with a scientist or a very kind of so-called left brained intellectual person, that's What I love. With a dinner. And then I, of course, I have to be fairly well read like Genesis and the Bible. The Bible is the book. It's right there. It's written all about The otherness of other worldly truths. I mean, that's the truth as I see it. What is our purpose? Why are we here? So religion is called into question now, and a lot of people say, But then what is the purpose?”

  28. “No, that was never imposed on me from my parents. But then, you know, they were, Dad was an intellectual who mastered in psychology and philosophy at Johns Hopkins. So that kind of religious stuff was not something they thought I should be imbued with.”
