You said, 'Why do I frighten you?'
Frighten me? Yes, you do frighten me. You act as though we will be together for ever. You act as though there is infinite pleasure and time without end. How can I know that? My experience has been that time always ends. In theory you are right, the quantum physicists are right, the romantics and religious are right. Time without end. In practice we both wear a watch.

i really need this book and it irks me that both kinokuniya and borders do not have it.
