And thin partitions do their bounds divide. --Dryden
Yes, he was warped. Yes, he said vile things--but he sprayed the venom at large; he did not inject it into individuals. He did not leave damaged friends and a family with maimed souls.
RIP. Perhaps somewhere somehow, by means impossible to imagine or verify, the clashing elements of his makeup are now harmonized.
