N shared his secret fantasy with me.
“You know what I’d love to do?” he said with a dreamy look on his face. “Just sit there and do abstract algebra. But I feel guilty because it seems so self-indulgent.”
“And I’d love to just sit there and study the history of Luso-Brazilian literature but I also feel guilty,” I said.
We are perfect for each other.
I have this same problem with mathematical analysis.
