"Conversations with Gordon Roper".
Conversations with Robertson Davies (1989)
Context: I think possibly the final sophistication is the recovery of innocence. Where you really get where you take things rather simply. You can't have the innocence of peasants; you are not a peasant; you can't be one of them. But you have to work awfully hard to recover that with a few additional hot licks, by getting smart, wise. I think the final gift of sophistication would be a kind of innocent, clean view of things — which doesn't mean a simple, dumb view.
“It's not where you take things from — it's where you take them to.”
“A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.”
