' Do you know what follows me and goes before and moves all around? Failure. Absolute and abysmal failure. What a start I had as a baby. Good strong levs. fine bones, clear eyes. ten toes, the usual complement of fingers, a good head for heights, not visibly deformed, a mind clean, innocent. and active as a new factory. What a site for development. And what ensued? Catastrophes. Calamities.'
