Gideon DefoeI'm no longer a child and I still want to be, to live with the pirates. Because I want to live forever in wonder. The difference between me as a child and me as an adult is this and only this: when I was a child, I longed to travel into, to live in wonder. Now, I know, as much as I can know anything, that to travel into wonder is to be wonder. So it matters little whether I travel by plane, by rowboat, or by book. Or, by dream.

That thine eyes never see a Vampirate
...and they never lay a hand on thee

Nay,' replied the squire. 'Hands was one of mine.'
I did think I could have trusted Hands,' added the captain.
