I think that I&#39;ve had a very strange life.

People you thought to be close to you, tend to make you reconsider after seeing or hearing things that hurt. My advice is forget them, life's too short to worry about trivial negative things. Time to move on and worry about your own happiness and well being.

I see now that this has been a story of the West, after all--Tom and Gatsby, Daisy and Jordan and I, were all Westerners, and perhaps we possessed some deficiency in common which made us subtly unadaptable to Eastern life.

It was not out of love that I wanted to meet my father, but out of the darkest curiosity - to be able to recognize, in myself, what evil I might be capable of.
