Each race shares a collective "soul"

Women are taught to embrace slave morality. Very sad.

I want to be an Army Ranger. I don't want to be with my girlfriend anymore but I feel sorry for her. I wish my commute wasn't so long but I can't afford a place closer to work. I hate the cold. Little dogs are literally rats.

What is it you like about the style of a writer you love to read?

I like how McCarthy uses detailed description of character's seemingly mundane actions to set up the scene and tone. Then what sparse dialogue he has carries more weight even than Hemingway's iceberg. My favourite piece of his writing is the blacksmith scene in Child of God, it exemplifies it perfectly. You can see a great writer emerge in a handful of pages.
