“A good-hearted man makes for a better thinker and writer because he is magnanimous and allows all into himself. And then the bitterness as he sees human nature work against him fires up the need to express. And then loss after loss because the good-hearted are the easiest to abuse so he finds himself, after awhile, with nothing else but his thoughts and words; his ideas and stories. Nothing is left of the good-hearted man but that.”
“Well put! All you need are a dozen good-hearted men and women with the freedom to enact themselves.”
“I yawn now at old arguments, even highly intellectual ones, that come out of the 19th or 20th centuries. The earth has rolled them over. All that is left are stinking legs and arms sticking from the ground like a fresh battlefield dominated by artillery. I have developed a new chant for when I hear one. “Ho-hum, ho-hum, ho-hum, ho-hum.” If you can build from the corpse’s a new vector bravo and let us see where the road takes us.”
“Hell, I’d rather just wonder around and talk to people.”
