Notably: Henry Steele Commager in his Oxford History of the United States describes the scene at Faunces Tavern in Manhattan at the end of the Revolutionary War when, that December 4, George Washington and a few officers dined together for the last time, and he drank to their health. “With tears in his eyes, Washington invited each officer to come forward and shake his hand,” Commager writes. “First to do so, because nearest to the commander in chief ( as he had been throughout the war ), was Henry Knox, the one general officer who in eight years ‘ service had never given Washington a moment’s trouble. When Knox held out his hand, the commander in chief not only grasped it but embraced him and kissed him on the cheek, both shedding copious tears; for in those days strong and brave men were not ashamed to weep on suitable occasions.” The emphasis is mine. In those days, as is very much the case today: everywhere you turn at public occasions, someone is shedding tears. When exactly was that time not in those days when people were more reserved, when public stoicism was prized a little more? I’m not sure it ever existed. If it did, I wish it returned. Nothing wrong with occasional tears, private tears especially: god knows we swim in them in our own private sorrows. But in public tears have become postures, performative shows of vulnerability. More sap than sadness.

In the business of life, one must know how to limit confidences: the number of truths that must be kept silent is much greater than that of specious ones made to be published. (“Dans le commerce de la vie, il faut savoir borner les confidences : le nombre des vérités qu’il faut passer sous silence est beaucoup plus grand que celui des specieuses faites pour etre publiees.”)
–From Casanova’s Story of My Life (1798).
Laurel says
Yes, magas keep lots of crickets on hand, don’t they? Very little interest in responding to logic. They wait for Fox Entertainment to tell them what next to say.
