AS MUCH AS YOU CAN - Constantinos Cavafis 1913 And if you can't shape your life the way you want, at least try this as much as you can not to degrade it by too much contact with the world, by too much activity and talk. Try not to degrade it by dragging it along, taking it around and exposing it so often to the daily silliness of social events and parties, until it comes to seem a boring hanger-on.
