underlying meaning lyrics
thousands of years ago, plato proposed that all knowledge was remembering
of course, we don’t believe that today, because we believe we gather knowledge as a consequences of contact with the world
but you’ll see that the knowledge that i’m gonna share with you will strike a deep chord of remembering, and it’s because everything that you’ve done throughout your life is in one way or anothеr predicated on what i’m going to tell you today
i’m gonna dеmonstrate this in a peculiar way, i think, because i’m gonna start by telling you a story
and the reason i’m going to do that is because models of the world that include phenomenon like consciousness, and emotions, and motivations, and actions, and interaction are generally portrayed formally in stories
and not in scientific theories
and it does turn out to be the stories themselves have an identifiable structure even a grammar that makes them comprehensible
furthermore, it turns out that even the simplest stories, especially if they’re elegantly constructed have an unbelievably profound

and you can frequently see this most particularly in children’s stories
i remember i showed my son when he was four years old, the disney movie “pinocchio,” which is on the surface of it is a very strange tale, right? it’s a wooden puppet
[pinocchio] someday, i’m gonna be a real boy
who wants to become real, so he has to rescue his father from the belly of a whale
[pinocchio] whale or no whale, i’m gonna find my father and rescue him. i’m gonna go to him, jimmy, goodbye
“pinocchio” is a deep, deep story
[pinocchio] father, i’m gonna save you
it has echoes that go back three or 4,000 years to the earliest stories that we know
and it’s so rich with information, the a child can watch it over, and over, and over, and over (over, and over, and over, and over)
i think my son watched “pinocchio” 30 times, but why?
well, it’s either because the child can’t tell the difference between fantasy and reality
or it’s because there’s something to those stories that’s much more potent than we actually consciously understand
you’ll find that in the top 10 highest grossing movies of all time, are four disney movies that are animated fairytales
essentially retelling a mythological stories, they strike a deep cord, why?
(why?)

well, shakespeare was of course, the great literary figure
he said it perhaps better than anyone else has, which is not surprising, ’cause he said many things better than anyone else has
he said, “all the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players
they have their exits and their entrances, and one man in his time plays many parts.”
[kids] yeah!
and so following from that, you can imagine that a story is no more about the props in the world than a play that you go see as about the props on the stage
the dramas is about the manner in which people actually exist
the emotions that they feel, the motivational states they encounter
the problems they have to solve when they interact with each other
and the play’s the thing from that particular perspective, in which we can capture those aspects of our experience that are not only real, but essentially humans
essentially human

all the world’s a stage and all the men and women merely players
they have their exits and their entrances and one man in his time plays many parts
all the world’s a stage and all the men and women merely players
they have their exits and their entrances and one man in his time plays many parts
