Conrad: people are complicated

Notes updated

He would reason about people’s conduct as though a man were as simple a figure as, say, two sticks laid across each other; whereas a man is much more like the sea whose movements are too complicated to explain, and whose depths may bring up God only knows what at any moment.

– Joseph Conrad, The Warrior’s Soul
