I'm not happy not doing anything. When positive things are rolling in, you've got to take them when you can get them.

I am conscious of my inability to grasp, in all its details and positive developments, any very large portion of human knowledge.

How do you nurture a positive attitude when all the statistics say you're a dead man? You go to work.

I've noticed that my resolutions involve me not doing stuff that I wasn't going to do anyway so here's something more positive. I'm going to retrain as a Latin teacher in a provincial public school.

For, to be a stranger is naturally a very positive relation it is a specific form of interaction.
