I find that in a book superstore, where the acoustics are usually quite lousy, a brief reading is ideal. This is the passage I often read from Golden Fleece .
Humans spend close to a third of their lives asleep.
It seems a pity that such time should be wasted. I had tried to make the most of it for Diana Chandler when she first started to get obsessive about what her research seemed to indicate. It seemed again worth trying. I truly did only want to use violence as a last resort, and maybe, just maybe, this would be enough to save the situation. Besides, I wouldn't be attempting to alter Aaron's thoughts.
