'Why do I feel strangely drawn to the kind of people I'd usually run a mile from? Religious fundamentalists, for example. At least those guys make an effort. They yearn for what they really don't know. The rest of us cross the stage as walk-ons, extras, without any lines. Satisfied with the pompous solemnity of the crossing itself.'
