" It sounds strange, but staring out at the countryside really is better than watching TV, because you never know what you’re going to see next. Farms and barns and windmills. Tall silvery silos that look like spaceships ready to take off. Railroad bridges built from giant Erector sets. A herd of buffalo that look like cows with fur coats on. There’s even some purple mountains way off in the distance, just like in the song about America. Everything keeps moving. It never settles into one thing, it keeps moving and turning into something new. You don’t need to change the channel, because it keeps changing itself and never stays the same. "
