In This Country, Unfortunately, As All Over The World, We Care So Little, We Have No Deep Feeling About Anything. Most Of Us Are Intellectual-intellectuals In The Superficial Sense Of Being Very Clever, Full Of Words And Theories About What Is Right And What Is Wrong, About How We Should Think, What We Should Do.
