What hope have you now given up? Not a single one, hopefully.

Have you humorous feelings when you are alone? I think I do, and no one call tell me otherwise.

What risks are you not insured against? Meanness from me or from others.

Whom would you rather never have met? That mushy brown snow in town.

Are you convinced by your own self-criticism?  Yes; sometimes too much.

What do you need in order to be happy? Fewer questions like this one.
