Then, for no reason I could tell you, I tossed the spool again, even though Elaine had asked me not to. Maybe only because, in a way, him chasing a spool was like old people having their slow and careful version of sex - you might not want to watch it , you who are young and convinced that, when it comes to old age, an exception will be made in your case, but they still want to do it. ↗

L'art de vivre consiste à accepter. Les choses sont ce qu'elles sont et, là aussi, comme dans les différences fondamentales entre races, on ne peut rien changer. ↗
