Missouri
"I knew a woman once who was so lonely...she drove all the way to Missouri...she said her mother had changed so much she wouldn't have recognized her on the street."

Death
"Every spirit passing through the world fingers the tangible and mars the mutable. And finally has come to look and not to buy."

Craving
"To crave and to have are as alike as a thing and its shadow. For when does a berry break upon the tongue as sweetly as when one longs to taste it? And when do ours senses know anything so utterly as when we lack it? So whatever we may lose the very craving gives it back to us again."
