“The American monsters usually are stand-ins for Cold War enemies. Godzilla is not really a stand-in for America. It is more of an indictment of the nuclear age. And Honda's hope was that somehow this film would inspire people to think about disarmament. I think today if he were still alive, he'd be very disappointed that, you know, nuclear weapons are possessed by more nations than ever before.” #steveryfle #npr #socobooks #dracula #godzilla #monsterseries #hondaishirō

By reading the writings of the most interesting minds in history, we meditate with our own minds and theirs as well. This to me is a miracle.” #KurtVonnegut #PalmSunday #autographed #socobooks #autobiography #collage #vonnegut #fatesworththandeath

“If my doctor told me I had only six minutes to live, I wouldn’t brood. I’d type a little faster.” #isaacasimov “For it would seem—her case proved it—that we write, not with the fingers, but with the whole person.
