#socializing

I doubt I'll ever do another book collaboration; I've been spoiled. Roger and I both happened to move to New Mexico at about the same time, when we each had a family of young kids to raise. Socializing seemed to lead naturally to working together. ↗

I never knew my father. I saw him at a party once, but he never walked over and introduced himself to me.

Telling an introvert to go to a party is like telling a saint to go to Hell. ↗

Once boys' and men's challenges are clear, the question 'why now' quickly becomes 'why didn't we see this sooner?' The answer? Virtually every society that survived did so by socializing its sons to be disposable. ↗

Socializing is more positive than being alone, that’s why meetings are so popular. People don’t like being alone. That would be, however, an important skill to learn... ↗

When I'm not in training. I'll walk around the streets at 153, but it's not solid; it's my socializing weight. ↗

I have no fear of men, as such, nor of their books. I have mixed with them--one or two of them particularly-- almost as one of their own sex. I mean I have not felt about them as most women are taught to feel--to be on their guard against attacks on their virtue; for no average man-- no man short of a sensual savage--will molest a woman by day or night, at home or abroad, unless she invites him. Until she says by a look 'Come on' he is always afraid to, and if you never say it, or look it, he never comes. ↗

Every gathering has its moment. As an adult, I distract myself by trying to identify it, dreading the inevitable downswing that is sure to follow. The guests will repeat themselves one too many times, or you'll run out of dope or liquor and realize that it was all you ever had in common. ↗

You do become very close like a family but because you see each other for such an intense period of time on the set everyday. You really don't end up socializing that much. ↗

If I could read while I was driving, showering, socializing or sleeping, I would do it. ↗
