It isn’t the first time he’s dropped a perfect quote for an answer. His mind is a trap. His books at home must be highlighted/written in like crazy.

It's a fantastic video clip, but I am a text person so I checked: halffullallgood.com/2023/07/23/l... "fear is the thing that keeps us from turning to evil devices to save you from the sadness,"

"as Robert Hayden said, ‘we must not be tricked into accepting evil as our deliverance from evil, we must keep struggling to maintain our humanity, tho’ monsters of abstraction threaten and police us, no matter what happens you are never defeated,"

"we must see [sadness and other struggles] in the light of eternity, and find a way to love and laugh with each other…’ something like that,”

He goes to the church I grew up and was baptized in and I see him there from time to time when my lapses lapse. Kinda nice that he seems like just a regular guy.

Watched Strange New Worlds last night. Capt. Pike is in desperate straits and says aloud: “Okay, Dad, you win. Our Father, who art….” Surprised and touched me (also long lapsed).

I’m convinced he’s got half the Bible (and *all* of Lord of the Rings and the Silmarillion) memorized. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFRI...
