I Think I Learned Pretty Early That

I Acquired More Wealth, Power, And Prestige Than Most. But You Can Acquire All You Want And Still Feel Empty. It Took A Deadly Illness To Put Me Eye To Eye With That Truth, But It Is A Truth That The Country, Caught Up In Its Ruthless Ambitions And Moral Decay, Can Learn On My Dime. I Don't Know Who Will Lead Us Through The '90s, But They Must Be Made To Speak To This Spiritual Vacuum At The Heart Of American Society, This Tumor Of The Soul.

Mostly I Am Sorry For The Way I Thought Of Other People. Like A Good General, I Had Treated Everyone Who Wasn't With Me As Against Me.

I Think I Learned Pretty Early That In The End, Its Only You. To An Extent, Youre All Alone.

Perception Is Reality.

My Illness Has Taught Me Something About The Nature Of Humanity, Love, Brotherhood And Relationships That I Never Understood, And Probably Never Would Have. So, From That Standpoint, There Is Some Truth And Good In Everything.
