We catched fish, and talked, and we took a swim now and then to keep off sleepiness. It was kind of solemn, drifting down the big still river, laying on our backs looking up at the stars, and we didn’t ever feel like talking loud, and it warn’t often that we laughed, only a kind of low chuckle.

Now that my ladder's gone, I must lie down where all the ladders start In the foul rag and bone shop of the heart. William Butler Yeats
Frank Herbert quote: "The surest way to keep a secret is to make someone think they..."
The surest way to keep a secret is to make someone think they already know the answer. Frank Herbert
I have begged and she hasn't answered. The whales are swimming deep inside me and she doesn't help. I need help. All the monsters in the world are inside me instead of outside me. I've been tricked and trapped and they are inside my walls not outside my walls inside with me and she won't help me. When I stop thinking about a muscle it shakes. When I stop thinking about a fear it leaps at me. I'm drowning but the lake keeps getting deeper and deeper and deeper and I don't know how to... Orson Scott Card
