    Better as I get older at least. Other people seem to think I am a good person but I guess we all have impossible standards for ourselves. By Dorothy Parker standards no. “If you have two coats you stole one from the poor.” I don’t have literally two coats but a dozen sweaters, which are short season items here.

    To the extent you can be good and live within the system, yes.

    If standing before God and he asks if I did everything I possibly could for those who needed it most, no, I have not, nor have I always been a friend to myself.
