What kind of woman should you be with? Who would be right for you? Who would appreciate all of this? A fellow connoisseur. Someone young. A PhD student, maybe. Is that allowed these days?
Maybe we could find someone in Organisational Management for you. Some keen young thing. Who wanted to open her mind. To expose herself to new things. Who’d some humanities education. A European, maybe. A foreigner. We have plenty of those.
I’m sure I can’t possibly interest you. I won’t hold your interest for long. I’m sure I don’t feel the great things. The great European feelings. The Ur-angst of your philosophers. I don’t sit like you on the banks of the great European river, admiring the European view.
I’ve even been on holiday to Europe. I’ve been all over Europe city breaks. Back when Alan was courting me. Probably wasted on me. All that profundity probably just passed me by. I was probably missing it all …
That’s the problem with Organisational Management. We run the world now, philosopher. We’ve taken over. But we’re turning it into a dull ol’ world.
