“I don't remember the first image of a werewolf I saw, but I suspect it was the hybrid type, up on two legs, with long limbs, hair, claw-like fingernails and lupine head. To me there's nothing scary about complete transformation from human into wolf. Wolves aren't scary. They're dangerous, yes, but so are geese, in the wrong mood. What's scary is seeing the human in the wolf but knowing it's beyond the reach of reason or emotional appeal. That's where the horror and dread kicks in.” FirstsHumansLongTwoReasonRememberKnowingSawsSeeingDangerousEmotionalHairTypeHorrorTransformationScaryLegsMoodAppealsKicksSuspectsDreadLimbsWerewolfGeeseClawsHybridFingernailsEmotional Appeal Author:Glen Duncan

“The concept of emotional or spiritual survival has an honorable history, but it does invite self-indulgence. In my own case, the worst I ever survived was severe personal and political confusion, the temptation to various sorts of craziness and a couple of bad acid trips. It felt pretty horrendous at the time, and some of it was even dangerous, but Auschwitz it wasn't.” DoeSelfSpiritualPoliticalFeltMy OwnCasesWorstDangerousEmotionalCoupleSurvivalConceptsVariousConfusionTemptationInvitesSurvivedHonorableSevereIndulgenceAcidCrazinessAuschwitzSelf IndulgenceAcid Trip Book:Beginning to See the Light: Sex, Hope, and Rock-And-Roll Source: Beginning to See the Light: Sex, Hope, and Rock-And-Roll
