“Knowing can be a curse on a person's life. I'd traded in a pack of lies for a pack of truth, and I didn't know which one was heavier. Which one took the most strength to carry around?

Together they come, and when one sits alone with you at your board, remember that the other is asleep upon your bed.”
― The Prophet
