I was amplifying the negative at the expense of the positive, not to serve any useful function, not to make my writing better, but to destroy it.

I haven't sought out and read a review or a tweet since.

Not one of these nobly equipped young men has escaped the restless, exhausting, confusing, debilitating crisis of education. ...

I don't see how any African-American, with any inkling of history, can say that you don't have the right to live your life how you want to live your life. No one should be telling you who you should love, no one should be telling you who you should be spending the rest of your life with.

Philip K. Dick
