William Steig quote ✍️

Quote

Rain caused one to reflect on the shadowed, more poignant parts of life — the inescapable sorrows, the speechless longings, the disappointments, the regrets, the cold miseries. It also allowed one the leisure to ponder questions unasked in the bustle of brighter days; and if one were snug under a sound roof, as Abel was, one felt somehow mothered, though mothers were nowhere around, and absolved of responsibilities.
William Steig Abel's Island rain
