“Before I go on with this short history, let me make a general observation– the test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function.

― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Crack-Up

“I try to live life so that I can live with myself.”
