From Vincent at A wayfarer’s notes:
I find that’s there’s nothing more noble and authentic than to respond to the moment. At any rate, that’s what this here-and-now moment tells me. On a different occasion I may ruefully reflect that spontaneity can lead to ill-considered action, which in turn can lead to regret. This is even reflected in English law, albeit one resulting from a EU directive, not likely to be repealed as a result of Brexit. It’s commonly known as a “cooling-off period”.
