"The most important questions a human can ever ask must surely deserve the most convincing answers, not simply the most comforting?"

Previous Quote

From morning till night, sounds drift from the kitchen, most of them familiar and comforting. . . . On days when warmth is the most important need of the human heart, the kitchen is the place you can find it; it dries the wet sock, it cools the hot little brain.
