You too, huh. It seems to be my hip....

I finally got it.

No, I am not quiet.
Yes, I am not in the "cliques."

(Interpretation: I do what i feel and do not care what the others feel about what should be done or not, that is the "cliques.")

So if you count on me to not to be the only one, do not on account of the quietness, do on account of the belonging to a "clique". I saw others though.


BTW, this is more or less what they were asking to the dons, recruiting them before WWII.

Yes. I imagine is the last part TadW.
It is a short story by Len Deighton, the Spy author of the Ipcress File. He has a collection of stories called Declarations of War.
Spoiler:
One of the story tells of an evening in Oxford or Cambridge, i do not remember exactly, when two old friends, a don and his ex pupil that now lives abroad, sit around the fireplace roasting chestnuts and chatting. and the friend makes a long speech about loyalty to principles and independence of judgement and the like. When the evening is over it is discovered that his name is Goering. Flat joke, I am sure.

You're probably right. I must have been getting it confused with that Gilbert O'Sullivan song, "A Clone Again (Naturally)".
You sure you didn't have one too many? I'm fairly positive the song in question was Thorogood's "I Drink A Clone".

Don't think I'm in any "Cliques", then again I'm not "Quiet" either, I guess I'm "Known !" you could say, whether that's good or bad .... Who knows ???

There are no cliques.
There are "them",
"Not them",
dreams,
and me.

Any subdivisions of "them" are purely imaginary and based solely on that subgroups level of detatchment from Reality.
"Not them" are beings I deem fit to have intelligent discourse with. Equals and/or friends.
dreams is too adorable for words. I would share my cookies with dreams gladly.
"Me" is indivisible, with liberty and justice for me. Trousers optional on Thursdays.
