“The violence in New York feels really mundane and banal to me. Whereas in the privacy of one's own home, say, like the farm I grew up on in Vermont, the kinds of things that can happen seem much more extreme. Maybe because it's more personal.

But it's like seeing things born, live, die, fall apart, and start over again, without any intermediary clean-up steps from some corporate organization.”
