My brother was a captain in the Marine Corps and a very big hero in my life.
After coming out as gay, I soon felt a lot more comfortable in my life, moment to moment.
In common with Michelangelo and Rembrandt I am more interested in the line, its rise and fall, than in color.
While I am impulsive in many areas of my life, marriage is not one of them.
We have a saying in the Marine Corps and that is 'no better friend, no worse enemy, than a U.S. Marine.' We always hope for the first, friendship, but are certainly more than ready for the second.
I think also there was a lot of coming to terms with where I am in life, where I fit in as a gay man in America, and getting more comfortable with who I am.
The Army was always big on Clausewitz, the Prussian; the Navy on Alfred Thayer Mahan, the American; and the Air Force on Giulio Douhet, the Italian. But the Marine Corps has always been more Eastern-oriented. I am much more comfortable with Sun-tzu and his approach to warfare.
Civilization is a conspiracy. Modern life is the silent compact of comfortable folk to keep up pretences.
I can imagine no more comfortable frame of mind for the conduct of life than a humorous resignation.
