identity illusions

Note.

An evening at the theatre. It occurred to me that there is something weird about someone wanting to be someone else. And even more so about someone sitting down for a couple of hours to look at someone they don't know; pretending to be someone else, talking to someone who is also pretending to be someone else. A dialogue, furthermore, invented

by somebody who imagined they were pretending to be each of these in turn.

Note.

The kind of profound,
bred-in-the-bone superficiality that can become, when superbly mounted, a
certain kind of meaningfulness.

Note:

Most people feel that their present situation keeps them from doing or being all they can. The feel they're on their way somewhere, to some higher league whre they really belong.
