As posted in the latest music thread:

My favourite must be The Tempest, if I had to choose, I think.

I interpret it as a reflection on rationality and emotion, gaining understanding and thus freeing oneself. A meta-analysis maybe, of the human condition and art, fiction.

Maybe Peter Pan was inspired by it.

And don't say *******, the Scottish play: it is bad luck. See: the forum elves agree.

Mania kills cells. Brain cells die. Memories become more reduced conceptually, making more efficient use of limited means. Memories shape our reality. Our memories are more or less split in two by abstractions, conceptual reductions. Mood states with memories, concepts, attached. Memories of pain and those of joy. It causes instability, changeability. Fearing that will leave an emptiness between pain and joy and a greater divide.
