I have back-and-forth feelings about everything a lot - it's not limited to my albums.
I am often of one opinion when I am lying down and of another when I am standing up.
Sometimes I find I'm wearing a divided, split brain in terms of drama and humor.
Sure, I've met with people I don't agree with.
You're only a man! You've not our gifts! I can tell you! Why, a woman can think of a hundred different things at once, all them contradictory!
The more I think of you, the less I think of you.
We have all had the experience of finding that our reactions and perhaps even our deeds have denied beliefs we thought were ours.
I'm full of contradictions.
I think I am really easygoing. Well... as I was about halfway through that sentence, I thought, 'No, actually you're really picky.' But the things I ask for are really simple to do.
It's quite hard for people to just accept that they're very contradictory.
A lot of people don't give much thought to what they believe, and it's easy for them to hold what often are two conflicting ideas in their head at the same time.
I have remarked very clearly that I am often of one opinion when I am lying down and of another when I am standing up.
Fiction just has a lot more room for ambivalence and internal conflict, contradiction, and for me that sums up so much of what people felt after 9/11 - confusion even. And I think that's hard to capture in journalism.
It's not like you make a decision and everything inside you is 100 percent happy.
Two fixed ideas can no more exist together in the moral world than two bodies can occupy one and the same place in the physical world.
