I have seen some things, have more stories than some others. Unless it's war, I am only interested in women, as friends or otherwise. I listen, but not because that is all I can do.
Since the war in Ukraine began, I have funded and implemented aid projects
I don't go to war zones because I am a humanitarian. I go to them because they are where I can be as large as I am.

Favorite TV Shows
Britbox has a couple of series - one on an anti-corruption unit of the London poiice, the other a British hospital series - which I think are very well written.
Lately, however, I have chosen not to form surrogate relationships with the actors in series. Now my only video time is on airplanes to/from Europe.
Favorite Books
I love the measured, often oblique prose of John Le Carre and its subtle innuendos.
Otherwise, reliably, Rilke, Shakespeare and socio-economic stuff dealing with the historical dynamics of the current socio-political realities, e,g, Kissinger's 'Diplomacy'.
Favorite Quotes
Denn das Schöne ist nichts als des Schrecklichen Anfang, den wir noch grade ertragen, und wir bewundern es so, weil es gelassen verschmäht, uns zu zerstören - Rilke
Sex is one of the few things you can do in life that makes you forget all the things you cannot do. - Edith Hahn Beer
I'm going to stand on the ocean until I stop sinking - Bob Dylan
