"And pain will be the thing that saves us" - Bob Hicock, "When Illness is Cure" I had to write a sex scene for my screenplay, and I had her say “oh baby!” as he, in a cry of sweet pain said “yes, baby!” but I know what he doesn’t, that she will get pregnant tonight, and I know this baby will be different than planned, someday a Special Olympian, not the pro prospect they’ve hoped for. Often the thing you say is the same thing someone else says even as that thing means something different, the way saves can be a baseball term, can precede money, can follow Jesus.
