I'm sure Richard Kirkland did his best as warden at Pelican Bay State Prison for the short term he was there. We wish him the best.

And to love such a librarian requires a surrendering to her eccentricities, a bowing to her pathological quietness, an obeisance to a reticence that is utterly untreatable. If you cannot commit to this sort of dedication, then let her be. Let her wander in wonder among her books and live out her days in her own world without you.

Reading - the best state yet to keep absolute loneliness at bay.

It's a great place to be a pelican.

All right, warden. Let's give them what they want.

They called her the Warden. She ran a tough ship on Neil for sure.
