    The surprise is half the battle. Many things are half the battle, losing is half the battle. Let’s think about what’s the whole battle.

    It began with begging.
    In the beginning it was all God’s icebox
    and everyone ate raw fish or animals
    and there was no fire at night to dance to,
    no fire at day to cook by.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
