“Either I shall faint or I shall grow to bear the pain, nature will see to that” and the pain just increases like a violinist going up the E string. You think it can’t get any higher and it does – the pain’s like that, it rises and rises, and all that nature does is bring you on from note to note like a deaf child being taught to hear.
