We didn't have much company, but I didn't miss it; I had the lake, the woods, the animals . . ." For the first time since he'd left for the Academy, Tarlac felt a twinge of homesickness. He wondered why, briefly, before dismissing it. It had to be the mural; Linda had said that art could evoke emotion even between cultures. "You alone grew up? No kin had?"

It's always intensely necessary." Her daughter, visibly affected by the gloom of her manner, felt impelled to evoke as a corrective a more cheerful idea.
At the same time the Committee emphasised, in the covering letter, their reliance on individual and combined effort rather than on State aid.
