"In my [high school] class, as in any class, at any school, there were students who had a
real flair, a real talent, for something. Maybe it was for writing or acting or sports. Maybe
it was an interest and a joy in working with people toward some common goal, a sense of
responsibility for people who in some way had less than they had or were less.
Sometimes it was just their capacity for being so alive that made you more alive to be
with them.
