This reminds me of one of my favorite Faulkner quotes (particularly the final sentence):
A gentleman can live through anything. He faces anything. A gentleman accepts the responsibility of his actions and bears the burden of their consequences, even when he did not himself instigate them but only acquiesced to them, didn’t say No though he knew he should.
hmm…the middle name has “baptist” in it, but I am feeling Catholic all over!
