Item 339

Verbatim notes by Spencer MacCallum from conversation with Heath

About 1954?

     When people tell you about evils and atrocities, no matter how true they may be, you reply, “Yes, but how do you use that truth?”

     When a person is prepossessed with his trouble and his injuries, he is prepossessed with something he cannot use — with something that will not last, that is impermanent.

Absurdity + Power = Atrocity
