Conventions vs. spontaneity. this is a dialectical choice, it depends on the assessment you make of your own times. if you judge that your own time is ridden with empty insincere formalities, you plump for spontaneity, for indecorous behavior even...much of morality is the task of compensating for one's age. one assumes unfashionable virtues, in an indecorous time. in a time hollowed out by decorum, one must school oneself in spontaneity.

Basketball is an intricate, high-speed game filled with split-second, spontaneous decisions. but that spontaneity is possible only when everyone first engages in hours of highly repetitive and structured practice--perfecting their shooting, dribbling, and passing and running plays over and over again--and agrees to play a carefully defined role on the court. this is the critical lesson of improve, too, and it is also a key to understanding a puzzle of millennium challenge: spontaneity isn't random.

There's no doubt that i really have a feeling for the theater. these past few days it has occurred to me to do a comedy whose chief characters are photographic enlargements. those people we see in doorways. newlyweds, sergeants, dead girls, an anonymous crowd full of mustaches and wrinkles. it should be terrible. if i focus it well, it will possess pathos without consolation. in the midst of those people i will place an authentic fairy.
