noticed…

I have noticed that when all the lights are on, people tend to talk about what they are doing, their outer lives. Sitting round in candlelight or firelight, people start to talk about how they are feeling, their inner lives. They speak subjectively, they argue less, there are longer pauses.

pitchers…

Poets think they are pitchers, when they are actually catchers.
