"I know you a little... A little... Did you notice? 'Little,' you say, such a small word. Just A and Z. Just two letters. But there's a whole alphabet between them. Tens of thousands of words and hundreds of thousands of sentences written with that alphabet. Even the words I wanted to tell you but couldn't write are between those two letters. One is the beginning, the other the end. But it's as if they were created for each other. To come together and be read together. As if they've overcome every single letter between them to meet each other. Like you and me... That's why, perhaps, little is more than much. Perhaps little is as much as life and death! Perhaps, to say 'I know you a little' means 'I know you better than myself.' It means 'Even if I don't know you, I'll do anything to learn.' Perhaps little means everything. And perhaps it's the only thing I can tell you."
