No man is lonely while eating spaghetti; it requires so much attention.

No man is lonely while eating spaghetti; it requires so much

Summary

This quote suggests that while eating spaghetti, individuals are fully engaged in the process and therefore do not feel lonely. Spaghetti requires attention as it often requires careful handling and concentration to eat. This level of engagement and focus on the task at hand prevents individuals from feeling isolated or alone. It underscores the notion that being actively involved in something, even a seemingly mundane activity like eating, can alleviate feelings of loneliness.

I miss my Dad. My Dad loved cheesy monster movies, so we'd have Godzilla movie marathons. Those are some of my favorite memories, laughing at how the monster outfits were so bad, like black garbage bags for heads.

I have condemned Khomeini's fatwa to kill Salman Rushdie as a breach of international relations and as an assault on Islam as we know it in the era of apostasy. I believe that the wrong done by Khomeini towards Islam and the Muslims is no less than that done by the author himself. As regards freedom of expression, I have said that it must be considered sacred and that thought can only be corrected by counter-thought. During the debate, I supported the boycott of the book as a means of maintaining social peace, granted that such a decision would not be used as a pretext to constrain thought.
