The Main Thing

What do you say when you strike a pedestrian with your car, the pedestrian goes up onto and then off of the hood, you continue driving for a block until a bicyclist cuts you off and forces you to stop, and then the police cite you for failing to yield to a pedestrian, who, in this case may be hurt?

If you’re Robert Novak, you say “I didn’t know I hit him…I feel terrible…[But] he’s not dead, that’s the main thing.”

Novak’s philosophy:

“Death is not everything, it’s the only thing. Or at least, the main thing”

Or (with useful hindsight):
Perhaps I have a brain tumor? Any report of a relationship there?
