"Everywhere I look I see people doing their best to make sense of this overwhelming reality, and to be kind, authentic human beings despite the many invitations we all receive to be phony, unkind assholes. Sometimes their best doesn't look like much to me, and I remind myself that my best doesn't look like much a lot of the time, too. I empathize. We're all human, and we're all struggling. Every single one of us, every single day. It's not my job to police the paths of others, not when it takes so much effort to light my own."

Then she said, very gently, "You're a good man, Harry."I swallowed and bowed my head, made humble by the tone of her voice and the expression on her face, more than the words themselves.Not always rational," she said, smiling. "But you're the best kind of crazy."
