On Cowards

Why Writers Are Miserable, and Often Cowardly

I see this kind of thought in reference to Mishima a lot, and I can’t imagine what the author has done that requires more balls than disemboweling oneself to make a point.

I mean really, there are a very select number of men in the word who can throw around the word “coward” and remain immune to mockery. I am sure that I will never in my life be one of them.
