“The most important things are the hardest to say. They are the
things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them — words
shrink things that seemed limitless when they were in your head to no
more than living size when they’re brought out. But it’s more than
that, isn’t it? The most important things lie too close to wherever
your secret heart is buried, like landmarks to a treasure your enemies
would love to steal away. And you may make revelations that cost you
dearly only to have people look at you in a funny way, not
understanding what you’ve said at all, or why you thought it was so
important that you almost cried while you were saying it. That’s the
worst, I think.” — Stephen King
