"How come we've got these bodies? They are frail supports for what we feel. There are times I get so hemmed in by my arms and legs I look forward to getting past them. As though death will set me free like a traveling cloud........I'll be out there as a piece of the endless body of the world, feeling pleasures so much larger than skin and bones and blood."
From Love Medicine, by Louise Erdrich
