John Irving quote ✍️

Quote

Once the state starts providing, it feels free to hand out the rules, too!" Larch blurted hastily. ..." In a better world..." she began patiently." No, not in a better world!" he cried. "In this one--in this world. I take this world as a given. Talk to me about this world!" ..." Oh, I can't always be right," Larch said tiredly." Yes, I know," Nurse Caroline said sympathetically. "It's because even a good man can't always be right that we need a society, that we need certain rules--call them priorities, if you prefer," she said. ... Always in the background of his mind, there was a newborn baby crying... And they were not crying to be born, he knew; they were crying because they were born.
