| It's just not easy to explain to someone else what you don't understand yourself. |

| Somewhere out there the world must have an end. |
| Take it not amiss, O speech, that I borrow weighty words, and later try hard to make them seem light. |
| This terrifying world is not devoid of charms, of the mornings that make waking up worthwhile. |
