Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Look,� Phillip said, “the world can be described as a war between two sides. The problem is that everybody has a different idea of what those two sides are. Liberals versus conservatives, Star Wars fans versus Star Trek fans, people who see the world in terms of us-versus-them and people who don’t. There are thousands of different two kinds of people. The way I see it, civilization is a war between people like me and people like Jimmy.�

The best way I’ve ever summed up the war as I see it is that one side, our side, sees a foul as being against the rules, and if you do it too many times you have to be removed. The other side, Jimmy’s side, sees fouls as things you’re allowed to get caught doing several times, and if you don’t, you aren’t trying hard enough.�
