An interesting question, Alan.
I think a lot of his attitude to 'win at all costs' has a great deal to do with, so he said, with his desire to 'win at all costs' in his battle with cancer.
No doubt, measures of intense craving and aversion at work.
kind regards,
Ben

...he wondered whether there was any love between human beings that did not rest upon some sort of self-delusion.
