Talk
- “Are you a fisherman? You've got the look. Tired, wet, and a little bit disappointed.”
- “My late husband said there's a whale out past the reef as big as the town. I never saw it. Then again, I never saw the town from the sea. Maybe the town's the size of a whale.”
- “There's an island out east where it's so hot the cactuses wear hats. That's what I heard. I may have heard it wrong. I was at the tavern.”
- “If you're heading out to sea, tell somebody. That way when you don't come back, they'll know which way to look. They won't go. But they'll look.”
- “Young people today, all they want is boats. In my day we just stayed where we were. And look how that turned out. Here I am. Still here.”
When you walk off mid-sentence
- “Oh. Well. My husband used to leave the room like that. Now he's left altogether.”
- “Off you go, then. Don't mind me. Nobody does. That's how I hear everything.”
- “How rude. I'll have to tell someone about you. Which I was going to anyway.”
