• Farms and food production should be, I submit, at least as important as who pierced their navel in Hollywood this week. Please tell me I'm not the only one who believes this. Please.

• Podría ser cualquier cosa. Podría ser Jesús y podría ser el Furby y podría ser la pelusa que vive en mi ombligo, pero probablemente no lo sea.

Eso es lo que es un ético.

• Believing that navel-gazing in and of itself can transform itself into something that means something for society. I mean, we are communicative creatures.

• The navel region is the centre of the vital. It is from here that the movements of the vital rise upward. Above the navel and behind the chest is the centre of the play of emotions and below this takes place the play of the physical. Mulādhāra is the base of the physical. In between the Mulādhāra and the navel, there is another centre of the vital.

Memoir never even occurred to me. I think I was afraid of nonfiction and I was afraid of navel-gazing, and of being seen.
