The Wisdom of Sigourney Weaver

And there appears to be quite a bit (h/t the real Craig Newmark).She appears to be as quirky and bright as she always seemed to be as an actress. A couple of examples.

I go on these panels and hear people crying because the public can watch movies on an iPod. Hey, who's to say that taking your iPod into the forest and watching a little bit of Lawrence of Arabia is not a fabulous experience?

And this one, which is a lovely story about thee deep symbiosis of humans and those domesticated wolves:

I volunteered to serve food to the workers at Ground Zero after 9/11. There were dogs trained to find living people. The people who worked with the dogs became worried because the day after day of not finding anyone was beginning to depress the animals. So the people took turns hiding in the rubble so that every now and then a dog could find one of them to be able to carry on.
