• I'm greedier than anyone. I don't want some half-assed happiness I
  don't need some partial warmth. I want a happiness that goes on forever.
  That's impossible, though! I don't know why it is, but in this world,
  some interference is sure to come. Important things break right away.
  I've been alive for twenty-two years, and I know at least this much. It
  doesn't matter what the thing is, but it will break. That's why, from the
  beginning, it's better not to need anything.
