I'll tell you why I like writing: it's just jumping into a pool. I get myself into a kind of trance. I engage the world, but it's also wonderful to just escape. I try to find the purities out of the confusion. It's pretty old-fashioned, but it's fun.

American Novelist

Ryan Guzman

Physically? If you've got really beautiful eyes, you have me in a trance right from the beginning. As far as personality, I'm attracted to really shy girls. Someone who knows who they are and is very genuine. That is just so sexy to me.

Different from being unconscious, 'trance' implies a person is still responsive to external stimuli.

Not Unconscious

'Trance' often suggests a state that's intentionally brought about, e.g., by meditation or hypnosis.

Induced State

A 'trance-like state' can result from deep concentration on a task or activity.

Focus Related

'Trance' music is characterized by its rapid tempo and repetitive, hypnotic rhythms.

Energetic Rhythm

Trance music aims to evoke a heightened emotional or spiritual state among listeners.

Emotional Elevation

'Trance' generally refers to music suited for dance clubs and raves, not a formal or quiet setting.

Club Scene

The verb form 'trance' suggests someone being put into a trance by another person, not by themselves.

Induced by Others

'Trance' used as a verb is common in the context of hypnosis or mental manipulation.

Hypnosis Context

When 'tranced,' a person's attention may be so focused that they become unaware of their surroundings.

Selective Awareness

 we'll be denying those people an indefinite life span, and I consider that that is immoral. That's my answer to the overpopulation question. Right.
