“Through the window yesterday I saw a fool talking to himself, and it made me laugh, until I realized it was a mirrored window.”
“There, in the corner under the window—the window through which he thought he saw movement before—was a slender white foot! Quinn’s heart froze in his chest and frightened bile began working its way up his esophagus. ~ "The Mirror”
“I saw my bulky person in the windows of the passing storefronts and wondered, when will that man there find himself to be loved?”
“oh, that was a terrible time for me, I can tell you. I kept the blinds drawn down over both my windows. When I peeped out, I saw the sun shining as if nothing had happened. I could not understand it. I saw people going along the street, laughing and talking about indifferent things. I could not understand it. It seemed to me that the whole of existence must be at a standstill -- as if under an eclipse.”
“There are no windows within the dark house of depression through which to see others, only mirrors.”
“A little more and I would have fallen into the mirror trap. I avoided it, but only to fall into the window trap: with nothing to do, my arms dangling, I go over to the window.”
