Don’t let yourself be victimized by the age you live in. It’s not the times that will bring us down, any more than it’s society. When you put the blame on society, you end up turning to society for the solution.
There’s a tendency today to absolve individuals of moral responsibility and treat them as victims of social circumstances. You buy that, you pay with your soul.
– Tom Robbins (Still Life with Woodpecker)
