Summary

This quote highlights the fundamental importance of human connection and compassion in our lives. Although religions and meditation practices can offer comfort and guidance, they are not essential for our survival. On the other hand, human affection - the emotional bond and support we receive from others - is crucial for our well-being and sense of belonging. It reminds us that in a world full of differences, love and empathy for one another are what truly sustain us as humans and help us thrive.

The state of New Jersey is really two places - terrible cities and wonderful suburbs. I live in the suburbs, the final battleground of the American dream, where people get married and have kids and try to scratch out a happy life for themselves. It's very romantic in that way, but a bit naive. I like to play with that in my work.
