This Account Of Him [thomas More] Developed As I Wrote: What First Attracted Me Was A Person Who Could Not Be Accused Of Any Incapacity For Life, Who Indeed Seized Life In Great Variety And Almost Greedy Quantities, Who Nevertheless Found Something In Himself Without Which Life Was Valueless And When That Was Denied Him Was Able To Grasp His Death.

If We Lived In A State Where Virtue Was Profitable, Common Sense Would Make Us Good, And Greed Would Make Us Saintly. And We'd Live Like Animals Or Angels In The Happy Land That /needs/ No Heroes. But Since In Fact We See That Avarice, Anger, Envy, Pride, Sloth, Lust And Stupidity Commonly Profit Far Beyond Humility, Chastity, Fortitude, Justice And Thought, And Have To Choose, To Be Human At All... Why Then Perhaps We /must/ Stand Fast A Little --even At The Risk Of Being Heroes.
