“Taking the things people do wrong seriously is part of taking them seriously. Itâ€™s part of letting their actions have weight. Itâ€™s part of letting their actions be actions rather than just indifferent shopping choices; of letting their lives tell a life-story, with consequences, and losses, and gains, rather than just be a flurry of events. Itâ€™s part of letting them be real enough to be worth loving, rather than just attractive or glamorous or pretty or charismatic or cool.”
