A bizarre sensation pervades a relationship of pretense. No truth seems true. A simple morning's greeting and response appear loaded with innuendo and fraught with implications. … Each nicety becomes more sterile and each withdrawal more permanent.


Singin' and Swingin' and Gettin' Merry Like Christmas (1976), chapter 5.
