Simon finds that admonition difficult to heed, though he clearly broods over the hostility he brings out in others. "My hostilities are usually showing," he says, in the vein of introspection of which he is so fond. "But I do get rid of my anger very rapidly. Some people are born with peace of mind. I was not. In the Dostoevskian sense, I am the suffering man; I know this about myself. And I know now that working my way out of it is a very gratifying experience. I have gone through a process of reconciliation with myself...

He had a fever, and his temperature matched his mood as he launched into a bitter denunciation of U.S. policy in Viet Nam, professing to see "a rising tide of public shame and private anger at the moral outrages to which our Government has committed our country."
