"If you stumble at mere believability, what are you living for? Isn't love hard to believe?" (297)
"Nothing beats reason for keeping tigers away. But be excessively reasonable and you risk throwing out the universe with the bathwater" (298).
"In understanding something, we bring something to it, no? Doesn't that make life a story?" (302)
