May 15: Thoughts for the Day

Posted on May 15, 2014 by John Swinburn

The moment you know something to be true, the instant you are certain of anything, become skeptical of your ability to distinguish fact from fiction.  There is a lie hidden somewhere in almost every truth. Certainty closes minds and repels real knowledge.

    Just noticed in listen to this video Juan, Diana resembles Giulietta Masina, but in a younger version. At least I think so.

    Trish….you’ll love the streaming Pervert’s Guide to Ideology; I saw it three times! More later to you; I owe you a long letter, Trish. Been so busy lately, and good letters need a good pensive mood with just a dab of scotch, as well as time to put it together. 😉 Will likely write this weekend

    John, these are two films you must see. Relates (I think) to your comment: Pervert’s Guide to Ideology (on Streaming Netflix) and Pervert’s Guide to Cinema. Both are directed by Sophia Fiennes.
