On Laughing Wild


"And because I do believe in 'intuition'-- which is a nonlinear kind of knowing-- there is a part of me perfectly willing to think there's a whole litany of different kinds of knowledge that humankind could have access to.

So some days I'm a sort of semibeliver.
And then other days, alas, I switch back to finding life an enormous, meaningless effort. And on those days I try not to talk on the telephone, and I sit in a chair and meditate on Peggy Lee singing 'Is This All There Is?' And I wait for feelings of optimism to return.
So let me go sit down and rest for a while. And you can read Laughing Wild, if you like."
