If asking for love is arrogant, I want to be a terrorist.

"The demand to be loved is the greatest of all arrogant presumptions". F.N. How bitter you must have been, Fred, when you wrote this. Deluded, defeated misunderstood and lonely. You must have felt the kind of loneliness that makes you frustrated with humans, to say that. But we know, the greatest minds suffer the most, even you knew. It's in the irony of fate that you found, too late, your match in all those that to this day heed your words. But you were another christ crucified in the name of nothing and utter selfishness. Your arrogance was expecting humans to practice the beautiful words they chant every holy day, or any void mantra they repeat to soothe their unwillingness to give, in order to take more; parading as sinners who see the light, but what they see is the gilded crosses they raise. And what they parade is a dead man on those crosses: vilified and humiliated, stripped of its dignity and unloved other than vicariously as a vessel of "divinity"; a cheap sanctified escape from responsibility, a scape goat for accountability. How your heart must have felt crucified in the unloving embrace of a paid woman, a surrogate for an affection you were never given or could never ask for. (edited)
