Summary

This quote emphasizes that a person's character should not solely be judged based on their beliefs or convictions. The true worth and nobility of an individual lies in their actions, integrity, and moral principles rather than the ideologies they adhere to. Regardless of someone's beliefs, their behavior and virtues should be evaluated separately, as one can possess noble qualities regardless of their convictions. This highlights the importance of taking into account a person's actions and values when assessing their character, rather than solely focusing on their beliefs.

The other night I came home late, and tried to unlock my house with my car keys. I started the house up. So, I drove it around for a while. I was speeding, and a cop pulled me over. He asked where I lived. I said, right here, officer. Later, I parked it on the freeway, got out, and yelled at all the cars, Get out of my driveway!
