“Human beings go to church. The guy in the front dressed in black is the guy you defer to. He is in charge of the mysteries of universe, which ordinary human beings don't seem to have the inclination to understand.” HumansSeemsGuyHumanityUniverseBlackChurchHuman BeingsMysteryFrontsBuddhismOrdinaryInclination Author:Frederick Lenz
“I’m the least fanciful guy around, but on nights when I wonder whether there was any point to my day, I think about this: the first thing we ever did, when we started turning into humans, was draw a line across the cave door and say: Wild stays out. What I do is what the first men did. They built walls to keep back the sea. They fought the wolves for the hearth fire.” ThinkingMenFirstsHumansHeartNightGuyLinesWonderFireDoorsSeaWallDrawsBuiltCaves Author:Tana French

“Human beings are like detectives. They love a mystery. They love going where the mystery pulls them. What we don't like is a mystery that's solved completely. It's a letdown. It always seems less than what we imagined when the mystery was present. The last scene in `Blow Up' is so perfect because you leave the theater still dreaming. Or the end of `Chinatown,' where the guy says `Forget it, Jake, it's Chinatown.' It explains so much but it only gives you a dream of a bigger mystery. Like life. For me, I want to solve certain things but leave some room to dream.” WantGivingHumansStillsEndsDreamSeemsLastsGuyCertainHuman BeingsPerfectForgetRoomsMysterySceneBiggerTheaterBlowSolveForget ItDetectivesJakeLetdownsChinatown Author:David
