“The thing that is destroying the world. The thing you were talking about. Actual selflessness.'
'The ideal which they say does not exist?'
'They're wrong. It does exist-though not in the way they imagine. It's what I couldn't understand about people for a long time. They have no self. They live within others. They live second-hand. Look at Peter Keating.”
