My father was a pedant and a bully who cared about nobody, and I was not to see him until I was eighteen Picture Quote #1

Memory likes to play hide-and-seek, to crawl away. It tends to hold forth, to dress up, often needlessly. Memory contradicts itself; pedant that it is, it will have its way Picture Quote #1
