“I have been moving around all my life. Going to different schools, living in different houses, shedding old roles, assuming new ones. This way of life is as natural to me as staying in one place is for other people. I do variations on the theme. I return to places where I used to be. I find my old personas. I try them on. If they still fit, I wear them out to a party or a show. If they begin to restrict my movements, I take them off. I am a human being, capable of mimicking anything I see or remember or can imagine.” PeopleIfsWayTryingHumansHas BeensStillsDifferentShowsSchoolRememberMovingLife IsUsedHouseNaturalHuman BeingsPartyRolesImagineMovementIdentityReturnFitCapableAssumingUsed To BeThemeStayingVariationPersonaMimicking Book:Falling Through Space Source: Falling Through Space
