I often come back to this quote:

"I have never been anywhere but sick. In a sense sickness is a place. . . where there's no company, where nobody can follow. . . And I think those who don't have it miss one of God's mercies."

Happy Birthday, Flannery O'Connor ?

First page, in tears.

"I have never been anywhere but sick. In a sense, sickness is a place, more instructive than a long trip to Europe, & it's always a place where there's no company, where nobody can follow.... and I think those who { don't } have it miss one of God's mercies."
