And I had to choose to, if not forgive, move past what happened and who did what and who said what and who didn't say or do what I thought they should. Just let it go and just live going forward. And I had to make that choice. And it took me time, but... I do it more than I don't now. I don't know.
It was for me. I was in, you know, I just, I didn't know how to handle it. I'd never seen anything like that. I'd never seen six cars of paparazzi chasing one of us. You know, people in the media, that doesn't happen.
What does it do for you? Marcus Aurelius was right. He said the best revenge is to not be like whoever harmed you.
He won't come on. All these people that I know personally. Marcus Aurelius? Marcus Aurelius is a tough get. Well, he died in 188. Yeah, I mean, you know. But you got to have hope. That's what we call great name, bad guest. It's hard to get a dead man on. But, you know, I know all these people. I just don't ask them to ever do anything professional, unless they ask me.
If I can help, then I have them on.
I don't think it's just him, although it is fascinating to me that he had kept this compendium of notes for himself, which I thought was very cool.
Yes. That concept seems very bizarre now. I know, and it's a big mistake. Philosophy matters. We do not test these men and women about their why. It's just about getting power and keeping it. And policy is a byproduct.
So he was taught by Stoics, okay?
Stoics were ancient Greeks. The misconception is that it means don't feel anything. That's not what it is. It's about choice. It's about living your life as a function of reasoned choice whenever possible and understanding what guides that. And that is what you control. And then there's a whole big basket of shit that you just don't control.
So you got to give very little attention and energy to it because you cannot change it. It's like the serenity prayer. Right. And it's just training yourself to be that way. And it is not easy. It's simple, but it's hard. Okay, here's a Roman Empire joke. You were just waiting for me to finish.
All pain is personal. It's much easier when it's not you. My father used to tell a very funny joke. You know, it's so sad that so many things that I grew up with where the different ethnicities swapped humor with one another. I think it added such a more healthy nature to the relationship than now when it's all sanitized.
Yes, I agree with you. And so then you, you know, when you're in my business, you know, you start kind of trying to plumb why, why, why. And the best I've been able to come up with is it's like the ultimate manifestation of rich people problems that in this country, We ignore things that we could be fascinated by.
You know, like the degree to which we have hungry kids in this country always shocks me every time I go to these areas. And I'm like, how is this happening here? How is it happening? Because... There's so many programs. We have become... Where are the kids hungry? So top-heavy. They look fat. We have more of a... They do. But that's the truth. We are at once...
Per capita, one of the most obese places on the planet. And we have crazy percentages of women who die in childbirth and hungry kids. That one's crazy.
I know. And it's like, because we've become so top heavy. It's so embarrassing. And that's what Trump was playing with, right? Which is that there is this real anger out here that like, how are you people? Right.
live in this way when it's so uneven in a land of opportunity i get it and we have created this dynamic of rich people problems where we destroy each other on these marginal bases you never would if you had a real enemy you know 9-11 yeah which you know you and i lived there were some real fights politically for bush before that and giuliani was dead man walking in new york city
9-11 happens and it checks every box of boogeyman for us. And all of a sudden, all those fights ended. That was the last time we saw Congress vote on a conflict. And now, unfortunately, they voted the wrong way because they had bad information. And there was no yellow cake in Iraq. And that's not where the 9-11 guys came from. They were all Saudis. And But we were so scared.
Right. And we started off the right way, and then we got into the political correctness and Obama refusing to say Islamic terror. Remember that?
And this was going to take a longer period of time. I think if you really cared about killing the idea, you would have gone to Saudi Arabia. And look, I don't believe you can bomb them. What idea? as a function of extreme Islamism. Right. I think that you go to Saudi Arabia, which is the manufacturer of Wahhabism, which is the seed root of that. And 15 of the 19 hijackers.
And you say, look, we're not going to bomb you. I can't bomb an idea out of existence. But... Right. You are funding it. And we will come in here and overtake you. And all your oil will be ours. Or... You can police yourselves. Now, that sounds like something Trump would say. I know. I'm not saying it's wrong. I'm just saying. No, because look, you're not going to bomb your way through it.
