I don’t like rules of any kind. And I seek people who break rules with happiness — and not bringing pain to themselves.
John Waters

Therefore, Ananda, be a lamp unto yourself, be a refuge to yourself. Take yourself to no external refuge. Hold fast to the Truth as a lamp; hold fast to the Truth as a refuge. Look not for a refuge in anyone beside yourself.

Students of media are persistently attacked as evaders, idly concentrating on means or processes rather than on ‘substance.’ The dramatic and rapid changes of ‘substance’ elude these accusers. Survival is not possible if one approaches his environment, the social drama, with a fixed, unchangeable point of view - the witless repetitive response to the unperceived.
