The temple. The hill it is on. What it is made of. This is not what makes a difference. My interest is what makes a difference. This difference is what makes it interesting. These are pieces of paper and these of air. There is a difference which is interesting. Would you believe me if I told you this is not my interest. Come and show me the pieces of paper. Come and show me the difference between what is written on the pieces of paper and what is written on the pieces of air. This is the difference which is my interest. The difference is what is interesting. It is interesting that there is no difference. It is interesting that you would not believe me if I told you there was no difference between the pieces of paper and the pieces of air. The Greeks built temples out of air and then the difference turned them into stone. The Chinese built temples out of numbers and then the difference turned them into paper. The Etruscans built temples out of wood and then the difference turned them into air. There is a difference between air and stone but it is the difference between paper and blood which is my interest. My interest is different it is in the air in the wood but you would not believe me if I told you. The difference is written in blood on paper but you would not tell me if you believed me. Cotton candy. Popcorn. Taffy apples. Brine. All these are different but the difference is not what is interesting. What is interesting is the difference between what I told you and what I believed you told me. The difference is there and it is interesting. The interesting difference is that you believed what I told you in the temple of air in the temple of stone in the temple of numbers in the temple of wood in the temple of paper in the temple of sunlight.
