Nikos spent last summer reading all the books on philosophy he could find, so I was appealing to his abstract intellectual nature, not his practical one. His practical side tends to be... consistently stubborn?
I live in the hope that abstraction is more malleable... though as Nietzsche liked to say, "Life must be lived without expectation, but most of all without hope" I imagine I'm just barking up a tree Zeus planted in jest.
