The end of truth. Here the professor implores us to look not at what a speaker says, but at what he or she might have intended to say, but chose instead not to. Remember also not to be equally charitable to all speakers, as some of them are to be taken quite literally.
Of course that’s what his words meant. But equally of course, it’s entirely implausible to think it’s what he meant to say. We should be capable of seeing that, and saving our outrage for intentional lies.
“Worrying” means trying to imagine as many horrible outcomes of a given situation as possible. It is one of the most popular human pastimes.
Humans often use being human as an excuse for having done something bad. Few other species are equally aware of their own inherent wickedness.

A German once told me, we complain because we care, because we hope things will improve. Germany taught me a lot. Hence, I and many others care. #MeTwo
"Sometimes I feel discriminated against, but it does not make me angry. It merely astonishes me. How can anyone deny themselves the pleasure of my company? It's beyond me." #MeTwo
