I have been studying how I may compare
This prison where I live unto the world;
And for because the world is populous,
And here is not a creature but myself,
I cannot do it. Yet I'll hammer it out.
My brain I'll prove the female to my soul,
My soul the father, and these two beget
A generation of still-breeding thoughts.
(5.5.1-8)
I know I am a hell of a lot better off than Dick III, yet the words above sometimes ring very true to me.
