But the central point is the heart, and in consequence it comes to partake to the meanings of the other two. The heart was the only part of the viscera left by the Egyptians in the mummy, and since it was regarded as the centre indispensable to the body in eternity; for all centres are symbols of eternity, since time is the motion of the periphery of the wheel of phenomena rotating around the Aristotelian ‘unmoved mover’. In traditional ways of thought, the heart was taken as the true seat of intelligence, the brain being merely instrumental (25); hence, in ancient attempts to explain the profound and continuing analogies between concepts, the moon was aid to correspond to the brain and the sun to the heart. All representations of the ‘Centre’ have been related in some way to the heart, either through correspondences or through substitution, as in the case of the goblet, the coffer and the cavern. For the alchemist, the heart was the image of the sun within man, just as gold was the image of the sun on earth (32). The importance of love in the mystic doctrine of unity explains how it is that love symbolism came to be closely linked with heart-symbolism, for to love is only to experience a force which urges the lover towards a given centre. In emblems, then, the heart signifies love as the centre of illumination and happiness, and this is why it is surmounted by flames, or a cross, or a fleur-de-lis, or a crown.”[6]]…. “I violated that.”…. “He didn’t deserve that.” [IM: HQT]…saw on wall [PTHM]…and mountain painting [AT: HQT]…Cooper on the right in brown and Harry on the left….x glass up left…to singer…so bright …surreal [AT]…Log Lady likes peanuts [FM]…sax solo…levels of sound [AM]…Donna has same color on as Maddie earlier in pajamas….two soda….two beers [FM]….Donna singing to James…the lyrics… “I want you right back inside my heart.” [HM: Heart as locker of secrets and the physically connected organ to such storage: the strain of secrets within, depending on their origin.]…he contemplates the peanut and smiles…Log Lady taps log…sailors playing pinball [HQT: GT].… “SkoKo…” lager shown…peanut bits [FM]…one on tap….fade to curtain and beer logo…..
