Men think highly of those who rise rapidly in the world; whereas nothing rises quicker than dust, straw, and feathers.
If you were writing a short ghost story, I would say start very quietly and go, ‘One, two, three jump.’ Or start with a jump and make it jumpier. But with a long story, it must have rises and falls.
And I always think of life like a giant wave. You know, it rises and it crests and it flies, and it’s just magnificent, and then it crashes. And for a lot of people, when it crashes, that’s the end, and they go down the deep, dark hole of depression.

Hamilton had a certain social versatility, and in a way, that is understandable because he’s someone who rises up from the lowest rungs of society and then scales the top. And he gets to know people from every strata along the way.
