About John Steinbeck
But 'Thou mayest'! Why, that makes a man great, that gives him stature with the gods, for in his weakness and his filth and his murder of his brother he has still the great choice. He can choose his course and fight it through and win.
We are all descended from the restless, the nervous, the criminals, the arguers and brawlers, but also the brave and independent and generous.
