And I spent a couple of weeks going around with a social work agency that ministered to the homeless. And I realized seeing the homeless through their eyes that almost all of them were psychiatric patients that had nowhere to go. They had a diagnosis. It made me -- what it did was to shake me out of the urban trance where, when we see, when we're passing someone who's homeless in the periphery of our vision, it stays on the periphery.
Am petrecut cateva saptamani pe teren cu o agentie de ajutor social care avea grija de cei fara adapost. Am realizat privindu-i prin ochii lor ca aproape toti erau pacienti de psihiatrie care nu aveau unde sa se duca. Erau diagnosticati. Efectul asupra mea a fost sa ma scuture din transa urbana in care, atunci cand vedem in trecere un cersetor cu coltul ochiului, ramane acolo, in zona periferica.
