“In terms of the game theory, we might say the universe is so constituted as to maximize play. The best games are not those in which all goes smoothly and steadily toward a certain conclusion, but those in which the outcome is always in doubt. Similarly, the geometry of life is designed to keep us at the point of maximum tension between certainty and uncertainty, order and chaos. Every important call is a close one. We survive and evolve by the skin of our teeth. We really wouldn't want it any other way.” WayWantLifeImportantPlayMightLife IsCertainOrderUniverseGamesTermDoubtTheorySurvivalSkinsAdversityChaosTeethConclusionCertaintyEvolveUncertaintyOutcomesTensionMaximumGeometryOrder And Chaos Author:George Leonard
“I really like the interplay between thinking of text as ephemeral and thinking of it as a concrete, physical thing.

“Any movie you see, if Tom Cruise is in an action movie or whatever it is, The Avengers, there's going to be a kick-ass female character. Usually one. And there's a term for this, but I don't know what it is.

“There are two kinds of visual memory: one when you skillfully recreate an image in the laboratory of your mind, with your eyes open (and then I see Annabel in such general terms as: "honey-colored skin," "thin arms," "brown bobbed hair," "long lashes," "big bright mouth"); and the other when you instantly evoke, with shut eyes, on the dark innerside of your eyelids, the objective, absolutely optical replica of a beloved face, a little ghost in natural colors (and this is how I see Lolita).” MindKindLittlesLongTwoBigsEyeFacesTermNaturalMemoriesDarkColorHairArmsMouthsSkinsGhostObjectivesBelovedVisualsBrownHoneyLaboratoryEvokeLashesEyelidsReplicaLong Lashes Book:The Annotated Lolita: Revised and Updated Source: The Annotated Lolita: Revised and Updated
