WINNIE: [Normal voice, gabbled.] Bless you Willie I do appreciate
your goodness I know what an effort it costs you, now you may relax I
shall not trouble you again unless I am obliged to, by that I mean
unless I come to the end of my own resources which is most unlikely,
just to know that in theory you can hear me even though in fact you
don't is all I need, just to feel you there within earshot and
conceivably on the qui vive is all I ask, not to say anything I would
not wish you to hear or liable to cause you pain, not to be just
babbling away on trust as it is were not knowing and something
gnawing at me. [Pause for breath.]
Beckett, _Happy Days_
