".....i am not young enough to know everything, yet not old enough to profess ignorance. though i am not naturally honest i am so sometimes by chance. i am not in this world to live up to other people's expectations, nor do i feel that the world must live up to mine. i am not one of those who in expressing opinions confine themselves to facts. i don't drink because i want to know when i'm having a good time. i am patient with stupidity but not with those who are proud of it. i have learnt silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet strange, i am ungrateful to these teachers. life is far too important a thing to ever talk seriously about. other people are quite dreadful. the only possible society is oneself....."
