Common to both is the loving devotion to that which transcends personal concerns and volition.

A blank slate is best.

I write with two things in mind. I want to be right with my fellow economists. After all, I've made my life as a professional economist, so I'm careful that my economics is as it should be.

"Black culture" is ready for whatever.
