"... Dragon Country, the country of pain, is an uninhabitable country which is inhabited, though. Each one crossing through that huge, barren country has his own separate track to follow across it alone. If the inhabitants, the explorers of Dragon Country, looked about them, they'd see other explorers, but in this country if endured but unendurable pain each one is so absorbed, deafened, blinded, by his own journey across it, he sees, he looks for no one else crawling across it with him. It's uphill, up mountain, the climb's very steep: takes you to the to of the bare Sierras. -- I won't cross into that country where there's no choice anymore. I'll stop at the border of the Sierras, refuse to go any further. ..." ~One in "I Can't Imagine Tomorrow" by Tennessee Williams
