“I live in a city a thousand times larger than your tiny hamlet. I have countless friends and means to entertain myself and manage my body and mind. I have lots of money to buy oxygen and drinking water.”

“Is your city larger than nature? I have just four friends. They form the circle of my life. We’re each other’s students. I need no money to buy my life. You’re happy with your world and I with mine.”
How small is big! I wondered.
