“But anyway, it's true of any sort of depression --emotional, economic: it occurs only after you've been riding too high. We ride too high on deceptive notions of power and security and control and then it all comes crashing down on us the low is made deeper by the high. By its precipitousness, but also by the humiliation you feel for having failed to see the plummet. As I said: sometimes it's personal, sometimes it's economic, sometimes even a kind of political depression sets in.”
