More From Paula Fox

The answer is never the answer. what's really interesting is the mystery. if you seek the mystery instead of the answer, you'll always be seeking. i've never seen anybody really find the answer, but they think they have. so they stop thinking. but the job is to seek mystery, evoke mystery, plant a garden in which strange plants grow and mysteries bloom. the need for mystery is greater than the need for an answer.

But though every created thing is, in this sense, a mystery, the word mystery cannot be applied to moral truth, any more than obscurity can be applied to light. ... mystery is the antagonist of truth. it is a fog of human invention, that obscures truth, and represents it in distortion. truth never envelops itself in mystery, and the mystery in which it is at any time enveloped is the work of its antagonist, and never of itself.

As i glanced at the phraseology of the research report, dull and unfathomable to outsiders like me, i thought that if you have the ambition to become a villain, the first thing you should do is learn to be impenetrable. don’t act like blofeld—monocled and ostentatious. we journalists love writing about eccentrics. we hate writing about impenetrable, boring people. it makes us look bad: the duller the interviewee, the duller the prose. if you want to get away with wielding true, malevolent power, be boring.

Good sex is a mystery. perhaps humping and pumping is not a mystery, but good sex is a mystery, and how human beings become truly intimate remains a mystery.

But what else can we do when we're so weak? we invest hours each day, months each year, years each lifetime in something over which we have no control; it is any wonder then, that we are reduced to creating ingenious but bizarre liturgies designed to give us the illusion that we are powerful after all, just as every other primitive community has done when faced with a deep and apparently impenetrable mystery?

A beautiful woman in our culture, and i would like to say, you know, this was different in 1962, but it still exists today - i know a lot of these women -treats different in a different way; meaning that if you're a beautiful woman, you're incredibly powerful within our culture. the world operates differently for you. then, at a moment in time, and it has nothing to do with you, it's like the carpet is just ripped out from under you, and the way that you've operated in the world no longer works.

I see rock music as the best example of modernday storytelling that exists in our society. songs are narratives that help the listeners cope with the reality of life that can't be easily spoken about in everyday conversation. it is a hugely powerful process of helping people find themselves through music.
