This is some nice wordsmithing from Nick Cave:
"Cynicism is not a neutral position — and although it asks almost nothing of us, it is highly infectious and unbelievably destructive. In my view, it is the most common and easy of evils.
I know this because much of my early life was spent holding the world and the people in it in contempt. It was a position both seductive and indulgent."
Nick Cave - The Red Hand Files - Issue #190 - Following the last few years I'm feeling empty and more cynical than ever. I'm losing faith in other people, and I'm scared to pass these feelings to my little son. Do you still believe in Us (human beings)?
You can ask me anything. There will be no moderator. This will be between you and me. Let's see what happens. Much love, Nick
