Conversations and Morning Walks

There are so many inconveniences. There is no doubt about it. But he is thinking, "Now I have done this skyscraper building, it is my possession, and even though I go to hell, it will remain my possession." He does not believe next life, but he is thinking, "My generation."
Morning Walk -- May 28, 1975, Honolulu:
