I love love love seeing zero-sum/non-zero-sum discussions coming up.
Theres such a rancid view that misses the societal project, that doesn't believe in anything but taking for taking sake.

I may be the last person who read "You Can't Go Home Again" cover to cover and I'm so glad I did. The last 50 pages--chapters 47 and 48--are as good as literature gets.

I loved Look Homeward and enjoyed Time & the River, but Web lost me & I gave up. I’ve got two copies of Can’t Go Home Again and you’re making me want to pick it up again :)

Mick Jagger wrote this about that Oval meeting:
So if you meet me, have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politeness
Or I'll lay your soul to waste
