There were details like clothing, hair styles and the fragile objects that hardly ever survive for the archaeologist-musical instruments, bows and arrows, and body ornaments depicted as they were worn... no amounts of stone and bone could yield the kinds of information that the paintings gave so freely

Every thing thinks, but according to its complexity. if this is so, then stones also think...and this stone thinks only i stone, i stone, i stone. but perhaps it cannot even say i. it thinks: stone, stone, stone... god enjoys being all, as this stone enjoys being almost nothing, but since it knows no other way of being, it is pleased with its own way, eternally satisfied with itself.

Well, another senator rose and said {as they always do} 'does the gentleman yield?' they always say that - least they call each other 'gentleman' in there. but the tone they put on the word, it would sound more appropriate if they came right out and said 'would the coyote from maine yield?' 'cause that's about the way it sounds. well, then, the other senator says 'i yield' (for if he don't the other guy'll keep on talking anyhow). so the coyote from maine says 'i yield to...the polecat from oregon!'

We hypostatize information into objects. rearrangement of objects is change in the content of the information; the message has changed. this is a language which we have lost the ability to read. we ourselves are a part of this language; changes in us are changes in the content of the information. we ourselves are information-rich; information enters us, is processed and is then projected outward once more, now in an altered form. we are not aware that we are doing this, that in fact this is all we are doing.

There, in the center of that silence was not eternity but the death of time and a loneliness so profound the word itself had no meaning. for loneliness assumed the absence of other people, and the solitude she found in that desperate terrain had never admitted the possibility of other people. she wept then. tears for the deaths of the littlest things: the castaway shoes of children; broken stems of marsh grass battered and drowned by the sea; prom photographs of dead women she never knew; wedding rings in pawnshop windows; the tiny bodies of cornish hens in a nest of rice.

Ordinary adults don't like children to speak of things that are denied them by their own gray minds.
