What we need is something, a definition of a human, starting from the ground up, so that the suitable moral structure that goes around it makes sense.

If you're able to enjoy something, to devote your life to it or a reasonable amount of time and energy, it will work out for you.

Listen to the river sing sweet songs to rock my soul.

The nature of what we're doing is something, which is by its very nature, is non-formulaic. There's no way that you can make it happen by intention alone. It's something that you have to sort of allow it to happen, and you have to allow for it to happen.

What can you do, what can't you do, and so forth. All these things are really confusing. A lot of it is really contradictory; it doesn't really make sense.
