Love Neil Gaiman. He's the kind of artist I would love to be

"when your heart is too full" ❤ What a perfect way to describe it!
-
So glad I was able to find the video version of this!! Just listened to it on Apple Podcasts, but It is so lovely that I wanted to actually watch this one. What a kind, fascinating and intelligent human Neil Gaiman is. <3
-
Neil is so delightful … what a creative mind … it takes a spark to make a fire, in Neil these sparks make a bon fire 🔥.

My name is Salome. I used to hate it as a kid 😅 as a grown woman I apriciate the notion my mother must have had.
-
Mr Gaiman: 👏👏🤙❤!

Hey, hey. Greeting from the South the Brazil. Two days ago, I have finished the first season of "Stage" and, now, I'm seen this beauty of interview. It's so delightful. Congratulations and keep on this incredibly show.

Sarah Bernhardt still had her legs them , if she was 47. It was amputated when she was 70, 1915, because her knee had caused unrelenting pain for several years . She continued in theatre until she died at 78🎉❣️🎭

The death of John the Baptist is not a little-known Biblical episode. This Herod is also not the baby-killing Herod the Great. Herod Antipas, same family, is the successor of Herod the Great.

No it’s not baby-killing-Herod! Baby-killing-Herod was Herod the Great. Salomé dances for his son Herod Antipas! Johanan preaches against the marriage of Herod Antipas to Herodias because she was his late brother’s wife and the marriage is “incestuous” (by the cultural standards of the time and place). That’s why he is in prison.

I always felt that Salome was missunderstood and used by Herod to get rid of John the Baptist, but of cours its framed as the "evil and vain seductress destroying a good man". Symbolicly I kind of look at the beheading as a geting rid of ego and letting the wild force of life winn over restriction and dogmas. Even if it means the eventual death of the beautyfull wild dancer.
