“Death has been kind to me, I thought. I haven't been run over by a lorry. I haven't fallen to a stray bullet.

“You never imagine that a guy like this, a Wittgenstein reader and yoga fan, will hit you in the face at a lawyers’ New Year’s Eve party. But the statistics show that it happens a lot. And that lots of men don’t stop at a slap. They’d actually rather kill you.”
