New York is the opposite of East Germany, the crown of individuality. That’s why I can work well here and find out what I personally think of the pieces I’m learning. I can lay aside all the baggage of German education. In any case, whatever I do, I can’t lose it altogether.

You have two pages, that’s the whole credit card agreement. The terms are clear and flat and easy to see so anyone can read them.
