Advice
By and large, it seemed to me, British businessmen in Hong Kong pursued their various careers in a pleasant state of half-speed ahead, eating well, enjoying their friends, gossiping in the club bar, taking the junk out on Sundays — “Whatever you do,” they used to tell me, “don’t go out with Bill (or Simon, or Ted), you’ll be drunk before you get out of the harbour.”

When I was alone in the Himalayas one day I saw a man. I saw him first at an extreme distance, across an absolutely blank snowfield at about 19,000 feet….He was a holy man, wandering in the mountains, I suppose, for wandering’s sake….I greeted him as best I could, but he did not answer, only smiling at me distantly and without surprise. Perhaps he was in a trance.
