A bottle of wine begs to be shared; I have never met a miserly wine lover. For most men life is a search for the proper manila envelope in which to get themselves filed. He has made a profession out of a business and an art out of a profession. My son is 7 years old. I am 54. It has taken me a great many years to reach that age. I am more respected in the community, I am stronger, I am more intelligent and I think I am better than he is. I don't want to be a pal, I want to be a father. To take wine into our mouths is to savor a droplet of the river of human history. We prefer to believe that the absence of inverted commas guarantees the originality of a thought, whereas it may be merely that the utterer has forgotten its source. When you re-read a classic you do not see in the book more than you did before. You see more in you than there was before. When you travel, remember that a foreign country is not designed to make you comfortable. It is designed to make its own people comfortable. |
