It's indestructible and immortal and carries long on after your own life is over. Who could ask for more?

• But since I've taught that bodies of matter, made
  Completely solid, hither and thither fly
  Forevermore unconquered through all time,
  Now come, and whether to the sum of them
  There be a limit or be none, for thee
  Let us unfold; likewise what has been found
  To be the wide inane, or room, or space
  Wherein all things soever do go on,
  Let us examine if it finite be
  All and entire, or reach unmeasured round
  And downward an illimitable profound.

But the fact that in civilized societies mothers-in-law are such a favourite subject for jokes seems to me to suggest that the emotional relation involved includes sharply contrasted components. I believe, that is, that this relation is in fact an 'ambivalent' one, composed of conflicting affectionate and hostile impulses.

In college, I was in a sorority, and we did a lot of things, like pick up trash on the highway.

• Losses are always a relief. They take a burden off me, make me feel more normal. If I win several tournaments in a row I get so confident I'm in a cloud. If I lose I go back to the dressing room and I'm no better nor worse than anyone else. A loss gets me eager again.
