We watched her come with subtle fire And learned feet, Stumbling among the lustful drunk Yet somehow sweet.

The jests that lit our hours by night And made them gay, Soiled a sweet and ignorant soul And fouled its play.

I had such a tie with my eyes and my hands. I could look at a telephone pole 40 yards away, take out a 7-iron, and hit it 10 times in a row. I had something special. And somehow, I really understood the game, all without having a lot of guidance.

Mark what 'tis his mind aims at in the question, and not what words he expresses it in: and when you have informed and satisfied him in that, you shall see how his thoughts will enlarge themselves, and how by fit answers he may be led on farther than perhaps you could have imagine.

Leonard Cohen
