Saul Bellow Quotes
I Knew By This Time What Thea Thought Of These People And In Fact Of Most People, With Their Faulty Humanity. She Couldn't Stand Them. And What Her Eccentricity Amounted To Was That She Proposed A Different Kind Of Humanity Altogether. I Guess Nothing Restrains People From Demanding Ideal Conditions. Very Little Restrains Them From Anything. Thea's Standard Was High, But She Wasn't Exactly To Blame As Having Arbitrarily Set It High. For When She Talked To Me About Some Particular Person She'd Be More Frightened Than Scornful. People With Whom She Had To Struggle Scared Her, And What I'd Call Average Hypocrisy, Just The Incidental Little Whiffs Of The Social Machine, Was Terribly Hard On Her. As For Greediness Or Envy, Fat Self-smelling Of Appreciation, Hates And Destructions, Fraud, Gnawing, She Had A Very Poor Tolerance Of Them, And I'd See Her Go Out In The Eyes In A Really Dangerous Way At A Gathering.
