...reading and writing have changed. Few people read habitually now-movies and T.V. provide a far more effortless escape to fill lonely nights. Reading literature is a form of active self-exploration. Unlike the movies, books demand immense concentration and visual inventiveness. There is a constant interplay between the page and wandering mind of the reader. Often he will look up entirely and lapse into a reverie suggested by the text.

They then proceeded to take astrological pot shots at me, explaining the significance of the way I was dressed, demonstrating how it was all indicated in my conjunctions. Damaska was surprised that I am a Virgo, confessing he thought I "come on like a Sagittarius." I retreated hastily and watched from a distance to see what kinds of people pay money for this thing...
