Said the Gramophone

The Hour of Surrender, The Minute, The Moment

Laura Rivers - "That's Alright (Since My Soul Has Got a Seat Up in the Kingdom)"

The doorbell rings, the view is just hips and backs in the distance, a mumbled exchange at the door. Meanwhile, the television talks on:

People ask why I'm a scientologist, but I don't really think that's a fair question. I mean, it's like asking someone with a stroller why they chose to have kids. There's a thousand answers, and there's also no answer. It just feels like the right thing to do, the completely right thing for me in my life. I mean, like, driving home in the New England countryside, in the rain at 4am because I was visiting a sick friend, mentally sick, and getting struck head-on by a two-seater. The driver was high and drunk and what did I do, I was a visiting a friend, and then an angel came by and saved my life. He was happening along that same road, and in the driving rain, the rain we were driving in, he pulled me out of the car and saved my life. I don't like to say it, but I'm proud of it, and I hope he's proud of it too, it was Tom Cruise. And ever since then you can really see what it's about, you can really feel a purpose and a drive and a perfect kind of goal; to raise up the species. So don't ask me why I'm a scientologist, ask me how close I think you are to being blessed the rank of scientologist.
