How long does it take for a broken spirit to kill a body that has food, water and shelter?

Much hostile and aggressive behaviour among animals is the expression of social insecurity.

What a terrible thing it is to botch a farewell.

You can get used to anything - haven't I already said that? Isn't that what all survivors say?

So you want another story?" Uhh... no. We would like to know what really happened." Doesn't the telling of something always become a story?" Uhh... perhaps in English. In Japanese a story would have an element of invention in it. We don't want any invention. We want the 'straight facts,' as you say in English." Isn't telling about something--using words, English or Japanese--already something of an invention? Isn't just looking upon this world already something of an invention?

When your own life is threatened, your sense of empathy is blunted by a terrible, selfish hunger for survival.

As much as I love movies, it would be presumptuous of me to think that I know how to make one.
