I'm One Of Those Perverse

When I Was Two Years Old, I Heard About His [dalai Lama] Flight From Tibet. Being Very Little, I Said, "oh, Good Tibetans, Bad Chinese." Those Were The Black-and-white Ways That I Thought.

Comedy Is Nothing More Than Tragedy Deferred.

I Exult In The Fact I Can See Everywhere With A Flexible Eye; The Very Notion Of Home Is Foreign To Me, As The State Of Foreignness Is The Closest Thing I Know To Home.

Yet [dalai Lama] Has Said Very Strongly That Basic Freedoms Of Thought And Speech Have To Be Respected In Tibet And They're Not At The Moment. Tolerance Doesn't Mean Accepting What's Unfair.

In A World Full Of Shifting Borders, Everything Is Happening All At Once In Every Possible Direction.
