| | To be a good human being is to have a kind of openness to the world, an ability to group undeterminable things beyond your own manage, that can take you to be shattered in uncommonly outermost circumstances on which you were not to blame. That says something remarkably important thither the get of the principled passion: that it is based on a trust in the up in the air and on a willingness to be exposed; it's based on being more like a plant than like a sparkler, something kind of dainty, but whose very particular beauty is inseparable from that fragility.
