“What are you doing about it, Howard?”
“Nothing.”
“But you must.”
“There’s nothing I can do.”
“You must learn how to handle people.”
“I can’t.”
“Why?”
“I don’t know how. I was born without some particular sense.”
“It’s something one acquires.”
“I have no organ to acquire it with. I don’t know whether it’s something I lack, or something extra I have that stops me. Besides, I don’t like people who have to be handled.”
