Pride has ever been my weakness and my strength, but there are three things only of which I’m proud. The first – I climbed God’s finger to stand alone in that high place and find a new perspective. Second – I went to the mountain for Gog, even though I couldn’t save him from his fire, just as no one can save me from mine. Third – I fought the all-sword, Master Shimon with the sword-song all around, and we made a thing of beauty.
