| | To be a good lenient being is to be enduring a kind of openness to the mankind, an gift to trusteeship undeterminable things beyond your own pilot, that can govern you to be shattered in uncommonly exceptional circumstances pro which you were not to blame. That says something remarkably weighty about the prerequisite of the honest life: that it is based on a conviction in the uncertain and on a willingness to be exposed; it's based on being more like a shop than like a treasure, something somewhat fragile, but whose mere special attraction is inseparable from that fragility.
