“You can鈥檛 divorce Margo the person from Margo the body. You can鈥檛 see one without seeing the other. You looked at Margo鈥檚 eyes and you saw both their blueness and their Margo-ness. In the end, you could not say that Margo Roth Spiegelman was fat, or that she was skinny, any more than you can say that the Eiffel Tower is or is not lonely. Margo鈥檚 beauty was a kind of sealed vessel of perfection 鈥� uncracked and uncrackable.”

“All children, except one, grow up. They soon know that they will grow up, and the way Wendy knew was this. One day when she was two years old she was playing in a garden, and she plucked another flower and ran with it to her mother. I suppose she must have looked rather delightful, for Mrs Darling put her hand to her heart and cried, 鈥極h, why can鈥檛 you remain like this for ever!鈥� This was all that passed between them on the subject, but henceforth Wendy knew that she must grow up. You always know after you are two. Two is the beginning of the end.”
― J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan
