I had a Spanish teacher in high school. I rarely got in trouble in her room because I felt I was disappointing her if I got a bad grade. That had more power over me than teachers who told me I talked too much. That level of respect I had for her made me not want to fail for her.

My father had a real short fuse. He had a tough life - had to support his mother and brother at a very young age when his dad's farm collapsed.

It's precisely the disappointing stories, which have no proper ending and therefore no proper meaning, that sound true to life.
