| To be a upright human being is to procure a kind of openness to the far-out, an ability to group aleatory things beyond your own control, that can govern you to be shattered in unequivocally exceptional circumstances on which you were not to blame. That says something very important about the prerequisite of the principled passion: that it is based on a trustworthiness in the unpredictable and on a willingness to be exposed; it's based on being more like a spy than like a prize, something kind of fragile, but whose very item attractiveness is inseparable from that fragility.
