My dream is different. Not aesthetic. Intellectual. I want to be able to understand the human personality. Not mine, because I think I understand mine. Well enough. Other people's.

I also want to understand human history, causes and effects. Wish my memory was better, I read things and they go away. Like pouring water on sand. Too bad.

I have stacks of books, but I can't read them fast enough, and I can't remember them well enough, and I can't put it all in a framework well enough to realize my dream. I know I don't have long enough, and even if I got it done, so what?

When I said, "you think too much," it was a joke.
