elspeth_vimes roleplays Fakir from Princess Tutu. All statements are those imagined to be of a fictional character. Fakir belongs not to the player, but to the brilliant Ikuto Itoh.
"Readers complain that the world is just not what we like; do touch it up with a tasteful pencil, and make believe it is not quite such a mixed, entagled affair. Let all people who hold unexeptionable opinions act unexceptionably. Let your most faulty characters always be on the wrong side, and your virtuous ones on the right. Then we shall see at a glance whom we are to condemn, and whom we are to approve. Then we shall be able to admire, without the slightest disturbance of our prepossesions: we shall hate and despise with that true ruminant relish which belongs to undoubting confidence.
But, my good friend, what will you do then with your fellow-parishioner who opposes your husband in the vestry? -with your newly appointed vicar, whose style of preaching you find painfully below that of his predecessor? -with the honest servant, who worries your soul with her one failing? -with your neighbor, Mrs Green, who was really kind to you in your last illness, but has said several ill-natured things about you since your convalescence? -nay, with your excellent husband himself, who has other irritating habits besides that of not wiping his shoes? These fellow-mortals, every one, must be accepted as they are: you can neither straighten their noses, nor brighten their wit, nor rectify their dispositions; it is these people -amongst whom your life is passed- that it is needful that you should tolerate, pity, and love: it is these more or less ugly, stupid, inconsistent people, whose movements of goodness you should be able to admire- for whom you should cherish all possible hopes, all possible patience. And I would not, even if I had the choice, be the cleverest novelist who could create a world so much better than this, in which we get up in the morning to do our daily work, that you would be likely to turn a harder, colder eye on the dusty streets and the common green fields- on the real breathing men and women, who can be chilled by your indifference or injured by your prejudice; who can be cheered and helped onward by your fellow-feeling, your forbearance, your outspoken, brave justice."
-George Eliot, Adam Bede
