| Good, but the novel-within-a-novel parts slogged a bit, I feel like the screen adaptation did a great job and that people who haven't read a decent bit of philosophy would feel a little bit lost by the sketches. ...more | |

“What goes on inside is just too fast and huge and all interconnected for words to do more than barely sketch the outlines of at most one tiny little part of it at any given instant.”

“If you can think of times in your life that you’ve treated people with extraordinary decency and love, and pure uninterested concern, just because they were valuable as human beings. The ability to do that with ourselves. To treat ourselves the way we would treat a really good, precious friend. Or a tiny child of ours that we absolutely loved more than life itself. And I think it’s probably possible to achieve that. I think part of the job we’re here for is to learn how to do it”

The difference is that the high rise is not on fire in most cases, and death is not imminent, if one stays put. It just feels hopeless, but if we keep our eyes open, there is always another way out of the crisis. I am saddened that David Foster Wallace did not find the fire escape. He was incredibly talented, and knew how to think deeply.
Oh I know. I just think it's amazing how much insight DFW has about depression and the like.
