“It has occurred to me that the word sorry doesn't even sound very apologetic. It's too sibilant, and quick to climb from honest sentiment to sarcasm, even annoyance. I really am truly, completely, undeniably sorry for my mistakes on Demeter, but the more I say it, and the more I pile up adverbs in front of it, the less sincere it sounds.”
