I am suffocated and lost when I have not the bright feeling of progression. ↗

I would not send a poor girl into the world, ignorant of the snares that beset her path; nor would I watch and guard her, till, deprived of self-respect and self-reliance, she lost the power or the will to watch and guard herself . ↗

I think the legacy we leave is our family. I don't think it's money. I don't think it's - I'm not saying that charity isn't a great thing. I just think that it's my family. Even now I look and I think, God, I'm lucky if I lost it all. ↗

Have you noticed there are some people--Americans especially--who seem untouched by the war, or at least, unmangled by it? I don't mean to imply that Mark was a shirker--he was in their Air Corps--but he's simply not sunk under it. And when I'm with him, I feel untouched by the war, too. It's an illusion, I know it is, and truthfully, I'd be ashamed of myself if the war hadn't touched me. But it's forgivable to enjoy myself a little--isn't it? ↗

So here is one of my theories on happiness: we cannot know if we have lived a truly happy life until the very end. This view of life and death was reinforced by my close witnessing of the buildup to the death of Philip Gould. Philip was without doubt my closest friend in politics. When he died, I felt like I had lost a limb. ↗

Why have we had to invent Eden, to live submerged in the nostalgia of a lost paradise, to make up utopias, propose a future for ourselves? ↗

I had seen people who had lost everything and everyone they loved to war, famine, and natural disasters. ↗

He who learns but does not think, is lost! He who thinks but does not learn is in great danger. ↗
