“Good handwriting is a lovely thing to have, especially for a boy your age,” Parsifal’s mother said, “but I wonder if you’ve ever thought about the fact that all handwriting, good or bad, is only a form of the ultimate writing, and that somewhere, as fine as your Ws and your Ds may be, there exists a completely perfect W, and a perfect D as well, letters that will make your own attempts (and everyone else’s, for that matter) seem pathetic and laughable by comparison. Perhaps one day you will find them, your perfect W and D, but I doubt it. Nonetheless, it only matters that you try, my son, because all searches are the same search.”
