Random Analogies
"Approaching Citizen Kane is like approaching the Mona Lisa or Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Such are great works of art - they're often encased in amber. And with whatever the innovations they've created or expanded upon, coming at them at a later time is often like solving a mystery - you know there's a reason why they're so important, but you have to understand the context."
"I'm pretty much fascinated with you lately. And I thought
those were interesting quotes. Liked the way you tried to
explain "love", too. I agree that words are not the origin of
what is "love" (as I suspect you meant it), but I might think
they exist because of it. Not even that, really, only that the
temporal love is like an echo. In time it will fade, whereas
the origin of the sound will remain beyond limit. "
"The mutations are random. Natural selection is like a sieve. Those genes that produce an organism that is well suited to the environment will be more likely to reproduce than those that are less well suited. Those genes will tend to dominate in a population. If the environment changes the gene pool changes by the process I just mentioned. "
