Neither of you can get sufficient comfort from your interest in what you know?

Let's emphasise interest rather than comfort.

I get a lot of pleasure out of trying to understand the world. It is a bleak kind of pleasure but the interest is real.

I don't get lonely. I enjoy my brief encounters with ordinary people, at the fish shop or at the supermarket.

I've been trying to understand Mark Blyth and read the usual suspects. And I've never read James Baldwin. Got a great bio of "Stalin Waiting for Hitler" by Stephen Kotkin. It reminded me of how anglo oriented our perspective is, just leaving our judgement to one side for the moment.
