"You are a worm. You live in a hole. The hole is life, it is your home. You cannot move, you cannot turn, you cannot blink your eyes, you have no eyes. The hole nurtures you, it cares about you. There are other with you, all in the hole, in the crevice between innumerable tons, underneath a crushing pressure. Everything outside the hole is death. Life outside the hole exists and it kills, oxygen and sunlight burn like fire. They kill you. Yet in the hole, you live. The hole provides, and you love. There is no escape."
