But I sat next to a young man on a flight to London, we never said a word to each other, and then discovered that we were in the same train car going into London. It was only polite to talk then.

I have heard so many sad stories I have never wanted to hear, about things for which I cannot be of assistance, and stories of past tragedies which often are so odd as to stretch the limits of credibility.
