the promptings of your destiny, and don't worry too much if
you and your destiny do not agree about what you should have,
and when you should have it. Happiness is always a by-product.

worrying about it and see what treasures you can pluck from
your own brand of unhappiness. -- Robertson Davies — Robertson Davies

It is there that all the more refined laws of style have their origin: they at the same time keep off, they create distance, they prevent "access" (intelligibility, as we have said,) while they open the ears of those who are acoustically related to them. — Friedrich Nietzsche

Hate cannot live alone. It It must have love as a trigger, a goad, or a stimulant. Joe early developed a gentle protective love for Joe. He comforted and flattered and cherished Joe. He set up walls to save Joe from a hostile world. And Joe gradually became proof against wrong. If Joe got into trouble, it was because the world was in angry conspiracy against him. And if Joe attacked the world, it was revenge and they damn well deserved it - the sons of bitches. Joe lavished every care on his love, and he perfected a lonely set of rules which might have gone like this:
1. Don't believe nobody. The bastards are after you.

3. Keep your ears open. When they make a slip, grab on to it and wait.
