Ready!—it was punching at him with agonizing blows, to be rid of him, once and for all. He woke up. Even that was not true now. It had been true once, but now the world was getting over any slight alarm he might have caused it. It was leaving him alone, to realise the wounds it had given him. Sometimes it was even tolerant and trying to patch him up.”
― Mary Butts, The Complete Stories

“Like men of his kind, at cross-purposes with their purpose, there could be nothing fortuitous that happened to him.”
