It's a genuinely scary film -- and that's a rare thing to accomplish in front of today's blase, switched-off audiences

There is one man of genius, who has done much for this philosophy of life, whose literary value has never yet been rightly estimated;--I mean Emanuel Swedenborg. The most imaginative of men, yet writing with the precision of a mathematician, he endeavored to engraft a purely philosophical Ethics on the popular Christianity of his time. Such an attempt, of course, must have difficulty, which no genius could surmount. But he saw and showed the connection between nature and the affections of the soul. He pierced the emblematic or spiritual character of the visible, audible, tangible world. Especially did his shade-loving muse hover over and interpret the lower parts of nature; he showed the mysterious bond that allies moral evil to the foul material forms, and has given in epical parables a theory of insanity, of beasts, of unclean and fearful things.

我们是否确切的明晓这一切的意义：小桶中的食物，平锅里的牛奶，街道上的民谣；从船上来的消息；眼睛的一瞥；身体的结构和姿态；——告诉我这一切的究竟；向我展示隐藏在其中的最高精神原由，它的崇高外现；这原由总是隐密其踪迹于自然的边缘和远端；请让我洞悉每一生活细节中充盈的两极律，这使它们与永恒律并列而陈；还有那修理作坊，那铧犁和那织机工，这一切，光影舞动其上并为诗歌咏唱着——因此世界不再是索然无味的杂物堆积或储藏室，它有型有序；这里不再有无足轻重也没有惶惑；只有纯粹的设计，它连接了遥远的高峰和最深的低谷，为它们注入生命。

Professor Ronald Bracewell, a leading American radio astronomer, argued in Nature that such a superior civilization, on a visit to our own solar system, may have left an automatic messenger behind to await the possible awakening of an advanced civilization.

Well,one reason is the way they're treated once they get there. The people at Disney go out of their way to serve their "guests"as they prefer to call them and to see that they enjoy themselves. All new employees, from vice presidents to part-time workers , begin their employment by attending Disney University and taking "Traditions I ", Here, they learn about the company's history! How it is managed and why it is successful. They are shown how each department relates to the whole. All employees are shown how their part is important in making the park a success. After passing "Traditions I", the employees go on to more specialized training for their specific job. No detail is missed. A simple job like taking tickets requires four eight-hour days of training. When one ticket taker was asked why it took so much training for such a simple, ordinary job, he replied,"What happens if someone wants to know where the restrooms are, when the parade starts or what bus to take back to the campgrounds? We need to know the answers or where to get them quickly. Our constant aim is to help our guests enjoy the party."

其中一个原因就是他们落地便受到的待遇，迪士尼的侍者总是不遗余力的以讨好&客人&并让他们满足所有的员工，从副总到临时工，在从业前都要读迪士尼大学并主修&传统I&在这里他们学习迪士尼的历史，如何管理与为何成功，他们也要全方位的了解各个部门的联系，每个员工都要了解他们份内的工作的重要性以及如何使主题公园经营更加成功但完成&传统I&课程后员工们将深入了解并投入他们各个职位的专项训练课程，细节毫无疏漏一个简单的剪片工作也需要4个8小时工作日来进行训练当一位检票员被问及为何这种索然无味的工作也要那么长的训练时间，他如是说：如果有客人问道洗手间怎么走，大游行什么时候开始或者哪辆巴士能把他们送回营地，我们必须知道答案或已最快的带他们到那里，我们持续的目标就让客人享受他们的盛宴。
