But to wish oneself into another's glory, as boy or as man, is an impossibility, untenable on psychological grounds if you are not a writer, and on aesthetic grounds if you are.

Your unique life is measured in time and time is your ultimate treasure. Treasure your time!

I think this happens to a lot of people, men and women, where you reach a point in your life and all of a sudden realize that things have changed. You suddenly realize that people are coming up behind you, that maybe somebody might want to replace you for less money.

Based on decades of observation, I propose that sudden high levels of praise always trigger an equal amount of inner self-loathing.
