[Man of the Cloth]"You might not realize that yet, but you pass through a lot of different stages in that amount of time. I've been a lot of different people since then."
"A Lot of different people," she said.
"Dozens."
"Oh, really?" she said. And she was aware of that wavering shadow passing over her once again, all the different people she herself had wanted to become, all the sadness and anxiety that she had been trying not to think about now shifting above her like an iceberg. Were they merely bantering again? Or were they in the midst of a serious conversation?
"So--" she said. "so--who are you now?"
