“There was a penalty for seeming strong, for those whose pride made it necessary to carry on as best they could although often lonely or unhappy. No one realized - few would take the time to look closely enough. The weak needed help . . . the strong? They needed nothing. Sometimes it seemed the price of strength was loneliness and unhappiness . . . and the rewards for weakness were love, tenderness, and compassion.” — Louis L'Amour
