in a pestilential prison with a life-long lock

“Each person who ever was or is or will be has a song. It isn't a song that anybody else wrote. It has its own melody, it has its own words. Very few people get to sing their song.

Thus nature dangles happiness and meaning before us all, insisting only that we choose between them.”
