You can't. Perls: You are already getting spiteful, you're on the defensive. If your don't want to do it, you don't want to do it. You don't have to achieve all this goddamned horseshit you think you have to achieve; just go along and be. So, you thought one day your were going to be a good writer, and you didn't have the one thing that it takes to be the great writer, and that is the ability to sit on your ass alone eight hours a day.

And if you don't have it, you don't have it. And who the hell cares. Well, it's sort of a regret, but I don't feel that regretful any more, you know. So far around it's been interesting. It's been fun. Whatever it is I want to use them in some way. Maybe to, uh I think I want to use them at the typewriter. I want to use them. Love and approval.

You're the big daddy and I want you to say, "Adelaide, you're great. You really are. You're really great. You're pretty goddamned good. And, uh Just to be reasonable enough and have some love and some caring and survive financially. That's about what it amounts to. You've got to involve yourself in something at this point. You can't stand back anymore and just sit around.

Your want to involve yourself - do it. It's not such a hard thing to do. There are thousands of things going on out there. You have all kinds of ways to involve yourself. Do it and see what happens. The experience is that I'm making a conflict when there really doesn't have to be one for me at this point. I'm manufacturing the conflict. Perls: I see.

Well, let's see how we can solve this and go on nagging, and nudging and hear this underdog Do it. Stand up and do it. The devil take the hindmost, you know. You've got to put the past out of your mind. Whatever happened, happened. And you've got to go on to something else. That's all. It's time to go on. It's time to go through that goddamned impasse.

You've been up to it forty times. You've had a million experiences. Go through it. You know. You know more than half those people that were on stage yesterday. You understood Fritz Perls. Very well. You understood the whole thing. You wouldn't have five years ago. Perls: [Underdog] How dare you say a thing like this to me? I am in charge of you.

I'm gonna sit around for the next thirty years an I'm just gonna feel sorry for myself and I'm not gonna do anything. And don't you tell me what to do. Don't tell me. I don't want to do anything. Parts of this beautiful zest for life that I had, it's gone away and I keep reaching to find it again, and I can't find it. And I don't know what the spark is what would make me come alive again.

I don't give a shit about the ego. I don't know. Perls: Put your voice in the chair. You talk to your voice. My voice is beautiful. I did a radio show at one time. Your are a beautiful voice. You are alive, you are interesting, It's a beautiful. It's a voice that reflects background, and breeding. It's an excellent voice. And not only that, it's carried you very far in this kind of voice with people, it immediately commands something.

People listen to you because it has this quality I know I'm playing this role. I know I'm able to do it. I delight in it. I know what I can do with you, my voice. I know just how to use it for what I want, when I want to. Perls: You're not becoming your voice. I am controlling your, charming you I'm keeping you unreal in a way. I keep you away from the real me because I've been such a good weapon for your all your life.

I've been a way of controlling your anger, you know. I've been a way of helping you get what you want at the same time. I'm good at it.

I'm good at this. I really am. Perls: Let's try this. I'm the greatest manipulator I'm the greatest manipulator on earth. But I gotta be right here. I'm the lousiest manipulator on earth because everyone sees through my manipulations after a while. In the beginning they don't, but then they see right through it. And I think I can play a game that nobody else recognises, but they see me.

They see me. And I don't realize they see me. That's the stupid part. Woe is me. And cut out the stupidity of self-pitty. You just really haven't. Your really haven't. I feel sorry for you because you can't stand up. Oh, you have stood up a lot, but you could do it more. They ruined my ears. I couldn't listen. So I shut myself away and my ears.

But it's time to open your ears now. It is such a bore. And I am so tired of thinking about it. It really doesn't interest me. If it really doesn't interest you anymore, then all your have to do is open your ears and listen. That's all there is to it. Just listen. Listen to the world. Listen to the music. And listen. Maybe that's all there is to it.

These ears are I am my ears and I'm all closed and I don't listen. I shut it all out. I don't want to listen. I'm hearing only one thing. I'm only hearing that terrible screaming. All that screaming All those horrible, hideous people in my family with the exception of that beautiful father. Could I listen to him? No, I couldn't listen to anybody.

You were a sweet man, a very intelligent man, an a learned man - and I didn't listen to you. I didn't listen to you at all. I'd like to. If only my kids could listen to you. They don't have any father to listen to. They have a whole different environment. I hear a mixture of him and a mixture of the screaming-both. That's what I hear.

I got something new out of it. I heard a whole new thing that I'd never gotten, Fritz. A credit to you and all the stuff. I got a whole thing about listening I'd never gotten before. A whole feeling about opening my ears. I hear myself wanting to listen. I'm on the road, though, an I Your didn't hear what I said. All right. I hear him pleading with me, my father, to listen to me.

I hear you. I got it. I hear what is. I hear what is now. I hear the tape recorder. I hear the air conditioner. I hear myself and my voice is still out there. My voice is I feel this reality inside of me which I felt for a long time. But my voice doesn't convey Therein lies the dichotomy. I don't even remember now what I've said as the captain.

I really didn't come for this interview to do this. Could we go on? Pretty please? Oh, women are allowed to get what they want, aren't they? I want to. If not, the interview I had planned, I'll have to make it up. But the thing is without all the living that I'd done up to now, I wouldn't have it. You know what I mean? Email: [email protected].

What is Gestalt Therapy? Perls, what is Gestalt Therapy? Oh, you would? How would you do that?
