“As the gulf between the educated elite and the mass of ordinary Americans widens, the hope for civility declines. The top 1 per cent send more of their children to elite American universities than the bottom 60 per cent. They emerge from these universities with contempt for the social conservatism of large swathes of working-class America whose fury found a voice in a president who told them, 'I love the poorly educated!' This dynamic of love and hate, fueled by identity groups that no longer understand each other, creates digital echo chambers where we speak only to those who speak like us. The first casualty of these chambers is any possibility of shared truth, and without this truth the centre cannot hold.”

“I hid this one in hopes that you would find it long after I'm gone. I hope you find this months from now, when I'm still out there, on the road, away from you. I can't imagine what the time apart has done to us. I'm hoping we're more in love than ever. I'm hoping that when I come back, you'll move in with me. In all honesty, I'm hoping that when I come back, you'll agree to marry me someday. Because that's what I want, what I dream about. You, mine, for the rest of my life. I hope you feel the same because I don't know what I would do without you. I love you so much. But, if for some reason we're not closer, if something has gotten between us, please, I'm begging you, don't give up on me. Stay. Stay with me. Work it out with me. Just don't leave me. Please.”
