“You have ten minutes,” he told me. “Ten minutes to think about what you did wrong and how bad you feel right now. Are you ready?”
He’d actually clicked a button on his watch and timed me, and for those ten minutes I brooded and sulked and wallowed in humiliation. I remembered the errors I’d made on the field and corrected them in my head. I imagined punching every player on the opposing team square in the mouth. And then Dad told me my time was up.
“There. It’s over now,” he said. “Now you look forward and figure out how you’re going to get better.”
― The Score

“Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to."
"I don't much care where –"

“Diez negritos se fueron a cenar;
uno se asfixió y quedaron nueve.
Nueve negritos estuvieron despiertos hasta muy tarde;
uno se quedó dormido y entonces quedaron ocho.
Ocho negritos viajaron por Devon;
uno dijo que se quedaría allí y quedaron siete.
Siete negritos cortaron leña;
uno se cortó en dos y quedaron seis.
Seis negritos jugaron con una colmena;
una abeja picó a uno de ellos y quedaron cinco.
Cinco negritos estudiaron Derecho;
uno se hizo magistrado y quedaron cuatro.
Cuatro negritos fueron al mar;
un arenque rojo se tragó a uno y quedaron tres.
Tres negritos pasearon por el zoo;
un gran oso atacó a uno y quedaron dos.
Dos negritos se sentaron al sol;
uno de ellos se tostó y sólo quedó uno.
Un negrito quedó sólo;
se ahorcó y no quedó… ¡ninguno!”
