People tend to think I'm always aggressive and strong. The truth is, I've always been wracked with self-loathing, which leads me into terrible, self paralysing depressions. When I go down to this place, I feel so empty and overwhelmed I can barely move. But perversely, I find these traits in a man unacceptable — I can't stand someone who can out-depress me. You know that scene in Babe where the farmer clog-dances for the pig? Sometimes I'm the sick pig and I need a farmer to cheer me up. And when things get bad, my boyfriend does dance for me, and it never fails to make me laugh. He's a pretty snappy dancer.

About Peter D. Ouspensky

Peter D. Ouspensky

Peter D. Ouspensky

Peter D. Ouspensky (March 4, 1878, Moscow - October 2, 1947, Lyne Place, Surrey, England), (Pyotr Demianovich Ouspenskii, also Uspenskii or Uspensky) was a Russian philosopher who invoked geometry in his discussions of psychology and higher dimensions of existence.

During his years in Moscow Ouspensky wrote for several newspapers and was particularly interested in the then-fashionable idea of the fourth dimension.

Ouspensky is best known, however, for his expositions of the early work of the Greek-Armenian mystic and spiritual teacher G.I. Gurdjieff.
