WINNIE: And if for some strange reason no further pains are possible,
why then just close the eyes and wait for the day to come,

WINNIE: You’d think the weight of this thing would bring it down among
the . . . last rounds. But no. It doesn’t. Ever uppermost, like Browning.

WINNIE: Oh yes, so little to say, so little to do, and the fear so great, certain days,
of finding oneself . . . left, with hours still to run, before the bell for sleep,
and nothing more to say, nothing more to do.

WINNIE: That’s what I find so wonderful, the way things . . . things . . . so wonderful.

WINNIE: Oh this will have been a happy day.
