"...he was absurd as often as he was brilliant."
Puncture 112801
Great strengths often are mixed with great weaknesses. It is not possible to be right and wise in everything you (and others) think and do. Be careful to filter the ideas of even the most intelligent and reliable people.
Activism is admirable and self-undermining - and the more passionate, the more self-blinding.
Patch 112802
It is very difficult to be objective about the ideas and activities we are passionately attached to. This can lead to dangerous things like, "my country - right or wrong". So, be careful, maybe even skeptical, about the things which you are most sure about.
