More From Mary Roach

Love. children are loving, they dont gossip, they dont complain, theyre just open-hearted. theyre ready for you. they dont judge. they dont see things by way of color. theyre very child-like. thats the problem with adults: they lose that child-like quality. and thats the level of inspiration thats so needed and is so important for creating and writing songs and for a sculptor, a poet or a novelist. its that same kind of innocence, that same level of consciousness, that you create from. and kids have it. i feel it right away from animals and children and nature. of course.

I am a product of endless books. my father bought all the books he read and never got rid of any of them. there were books in the study, books in the drawing room, books in the cloakroom, books (two deep) in the great bookcase on the landing, books in a bedroom, books piled as high as my shoulder in the cistern attic...in the seemingly endless rainy afternoons i took volume after volume from the shelves. i had always the same certainty of finding a book that was new to me as a man who walks into a field has of finding a new blade of grass.

Superficial to understand the journal as just a receptable for one's private, secret thoughts - like a confidante who is deaf, dumb, and illiterate. in the journal i do not just express myself more openly than i could to any person; i create myself. ... the journal is a vehicle for my sense of selfhood. it represents me as emotionally and spiritually independent. therefore (alas) it does not simply record my actual, daily life but rather - in many cases - offers an alternative to it.

The biggest problem in rock journalism is that often the writers main motivation is to become friends with the band. theyre not really journalists; theyre people who want to be involved in rock and roll.

Sometimes cats just avoid using a litter box but that [cat going poop outside the litter box but pees inside the litter box] is kind of strange. most time people ask me why they go outside the litter box period.

It has always seemed strange to me that in our endless discussions about education so little stress is laid on the pleasure of becoming an educated person, the enormous interest it adds to life. to be able to be caught up into the world of thought-that is to be educated.
