But Baddeley had always taken comfort in being led from
his troubles by a mind that acknowledged no troubles but its own.
Whenever he grew tired of himself, spending time with Davidoff allowed
Baddeley to grow tired of someone else. It allowed him to return
refreshed to his own company."
From André Alexis' newest novella
A (BookThug, September 2013). I really like this idea, but unfortunately, under no circumstance can I endure people who talk about themselves incessantly. Perhaps my troubles aren't great enough.
