One of the things that I knew, knowing what was there, when I saw them, I didn't wonder what was there, but I know that the spotlight or the searchlight's job is to call attention to the spectacle, call attention to what is it that is there. When people follow that light or follow where it is, when they get there, the first thing they do, unless they're strange, isn't go look to see, whoa, what manufacturer is this? How many kilowatts are these? They look at the spectacle that the lights are calling attention to.
Imagine uprooting your entire life to answer a higher calling, even when the destination is fraught with danger.
