"I am a burden to you. I should go away. Please, admit it. I am a burden to you."
"I will not admit such a thing."
"You will not admit it, you say. Such an answer could mean that it is true or untrue."
"You must learn to live with mystery, David."
"My life is nothing but mysteries."
"Then permit me a rabbinical answer. There are burdens, even heavy burdens, that ease the weight of a man's life. And there are burdens that, when they are lifted from a man's life, will crush him."
From Sophia House, by Michael D. O'Brien
