Tommy [Thompson] was worried, but he liked to worry. "The more you worry, the more you think," he said, "and the more you think, the more you know, and the more you know, the better you're able to deal with the situation. I'm not the type to worry to the point of dysfunction. The more I worry, the more energy I have."Gary Kinder, Ship of Gold in the Deep Blue Sea (New York: Grove Publishing, 1998), Kindle loc. 6486
