This is what I’ve found; I’ve found it’s no good (and this is pop-philosophy and for that I’m sorry) to be very social, or rather just being very social isn’t enough.  You’ll still be lonely if you see lots of people all the time.  What makes you not lonely is to see a few people often.  If you can just see the same person at the end of every day you’ll be okay; if you see fifteen or twenty-five or thirty people over the course of a day you’ll just have had many short conversations that weren’t too substantial.  Even if the conversations you’ve had were substantial, you are lacking a base, there is no continuity in your experience.  You’ve got to develop continuity.  This is just true.  This is the problem with Pomona this year.  I see too too many people and so am too lonely.
