Again, it's not the best argument or the best advertisement for his story, because most people aren't going to read a thousand-page book.

They go to parties intent on finding their perfect partner, and so miss opportunities to make good friends. They look through the newspaper determined to find certain job advertisements and, as a result, miss other types of jobs. Lucky people are more relaxed and open,…
