- exercising the machinery of creativity does not manufacture truth. (imagine a couple of film-ic types, ya know, we need something shocking here, how about the guy amputates his own leg with a saw, nah, nah, how about he amputates his father's leg with a whacking great knife & lets him bleed to death, yeah cool, right, then he fucks his mother... and based on this in the year 4000 they construct a theory of human behaviour - reckon it'll be any good?)

- Deep things are hard to understand, and the struggle to understand them can provoke strong emotions; but it does not follow that things which are hard to understand are necessarily deep (comment on the legions of inept disciples of Foucault et. al.)

- Rhythm is patterns of cause and effect transformed into patterns of time (I was thinking about the way in which you can do a lot of things once you have organised a pattern for them, so you don't need to think about the nature of the interrelationships all the time. The interrelationships are still all there, but the ordering of the rhythm of your life incorporates them automatically)

- Thinking costs 20 seconds per half-kilometre. Time to run .5K thinking about stride, breathing & arms is 2:20. Thinking about work/life/study the time rises to 2:40. Mind/body, anyone?
