Mark Twain wrote to his best friend of 40 years, after the death of his daughter:  "I do not want most people to write (to me), but I do want you to do it.  The others break my heart, but you will not.  You have something divine in you that is not in the other men.  You have the touch that heals, not lacerates.  And you know the secret places of our hearts.  You know our life--the outside of it--as the others do--and the inside of it--which they do not.  You have seen our whole voyage.  You have seen us go to sea, a cloud of sail--and the flag at the peak; and you see us now, chartless, adrift--derelicts; battered, water-logged, our sails a ruck of rags, our pride gone.  For it is gone.  And there is nothing in its place.  The vanity of life was all we had, and there is no more vanity left in us."
