The story is not in the plot but in the telling.

La imaginación es el único país en el que soy libre.

The world is full of people who have never, since childhood, met an open doorway with an open heart.

We are lonesome animals. We spend all our life trying to be less lonesome. One of our ancient methods is to tell a story begging the listener to say — and to feel — 'Yes, that's the way it is, or at least that's the way I feel it.'

To know this world is to love it, and to love it is to grieve for it.
