“You often hear that people go into show business to find the love they never had when they were children. Never believe it! Every comic and most of the actors I know had a childhood full of love. Then they grew up and found out that in the grown-up world, you don't get all that love, you just get your share. So they went into show business to recapture the love they had known as children when they were the center of the universe.” PeopleKnowsWorldBelieveChildrenShowsUniverseActorsFoundKnownShareChildhoodLove YouGrewGrew UpComicShow BusinessCenter Of The Universe Author:Mel Brooks
“What, then, is that incalculable feeling that deprives the mind of the sleep necessary to life? A world that can be explained even with bad reasons is a familiar world. But, on the other hand, in a universe suddenly divested of illusions and lights, man feels an alien, a stranger. His exile is without remedy since he is deprived of the memory of a lost home or the hope of a promised land. This divorce between man and his life, the actor and his setting, is properly the feeling of absurdity.” MenWorldFeelsMindReasonFeelingsHomeHandsLightUniverseActorsLostMemoriesSleepLandIllusionStrangerDivorceSettingFamiliarSettingsAliensRemedyAbsurdityExileDeprivedPromised LandMyth Of Sisyphus Book:The Myth of Sisyphus: And Other Essays Source: The Myth of Sisyphus: And Other Essays
