The ideal attitude is to be physically loose and mentally tight.

Because most people are not sufficiently employed in themselves they run about loose hungering for employment and satisfy themselves in various supererogatory occupations. The easiest of these occupations which have all to do with making things already made is the making of people: it is called the art of friendship.

I'm single footloose and fancy free I have no responsibilities no anchors. Work friendship and self-improvement that's me.

I don't know whether it's age or maturity but I certainly find myself committed more and more to the looser forms of Western democracy at any price.
